DH Labs

@builder3 If you had bought the Dimension brand new, I suggest you swap the stock cables back in. It takes quite a while, at least a few hundred hours of play, for the Dimension to break in since phono signals are very delicate, and they are a bit more closed in at first. As they open up, it is easier to discern the differences against copper conductor cables.

I would add Zavfino Majestic MKII tonearm cable to your consideration as well. When I went through upgrade cycle over my stock tonearm cable (Van den Hul) to Audio Envy to Majestic, each upgrade was a solid improvement over stock cable. 

I have long admired DH Labs cables but IMHO, Zavfino cables build and performance punches way above its price of admission. 

@blisshifi , that's a good point, I might try the original phono cables again, see what I hear. The Dimension cables I bought weren't brand new, they were sold to me at a discount by DH Labs as demos, they'd been used at a show. Still probably didn't have more than a dozen hours on them.

@audphile1, you might look at usedcable.com. Hard to say what might pop up. Or ask DH Labs if they ever have other used demo stuff.

@lalitk I’ll look into it. I don’t know how Majestic compares to Arcadia sonically. I kind of grew out of the Arcadia between my phono stage and preamp. 

@audphile1

IME, Majestic holds a sweet spot in Zavfino line. If you recall one of my earlier posts, I recommended Fusion IC over Arcadia, your system is far more superior for entry level cables.
