Any problems with using a regular component interconnect (Cardas Hexlink) between the RCA output block on my VPI Turntable to the phono preamp? I have a good seperate ground cable.
Should work great. Usually the only thing that's different between a regular interconnect and a "phono" interconnect, (i.e. NON DIN...RCA to RCA) is the addition of the ground wire.
Some claim dedicated phono interconnects are better as they are generally smaller guage, somehow better preserve the integrity of the very low level cartridge output signal. I've never compared the two directly, just use regular IC.
