Turntable interconnect

I do not know much about analog I am currently using an interconnect without a ground. There is no hum. Should I spend the money and get a regular phono cable with a ground. Have a VPI Classic and Nova Phonomena phonostage. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Not kidding at all. I compared the same wire with and without shielding, and indeed the shielded wire always had a closed in sound compared to the unshielded.

Thats interesting, my experience is the complete opposite with shielded wire always sounding better and actually the better the shielding the better the sound. I guess its system dependent.
