speaker cable question

I use a pair of Shunyata Venom cable on my turntable with excellent results.  It sounds much better than the $300.00 VPI branded cable I was using previously. 

I have the silversmith fideliums and am very happy with them in my system.  

Nothing wrong with your table or cartridge at all. 

I tried various Nordost speaker cables up to Heimdall along with the new Venom X and ended up liking the "regular" Venom in my system.  My previous cables were Reality Cables, an old mail order only brand.  The Venom were the only ones I liked better than the Reality ones and it was not even by a lot. I wanted bananas on both ends. The Reality had them on one end. That's the only reason I was looking.

You should do yourself a favor and check out Darwin Cables. Check out their specials page as well and give them a call. Single, solid core silver cables as thin as you hair within larger tubing that simulates air for a dielectric. Low mass ends as well so not to dirty up the sound. 

Great guys to talk to and they have a 30 day return policy if you don't like them. Here's a simple video of what they make. No gimmicks or huge PR budget to fluff things up.

All the best,
