My B&O 4002 Turntable has some real cheap phono output jacks and cables any suggestion on what would be a good replacement jacks and cable would be greatly appreciated. Do I buy a premade patch cable and cut off one end to reconnect inside the turntable?
For RCA plugs, Onix 70024 from Parts ConneXion. They have a solid copper pin. For coaxial cable, 28 or 30 gauge silver over copper with teflon insulation from Johnswireshop.com.
I have used Morrow PH2, PH4 and PH6 on my VPI Scout over the years. I highly recommend Morrow cables at any level. If you get lower cost Morrow cables now you can upgrade through Morrow's upgrade program down the road. Mike will give you a good deal if you call him directly.
the B&O turntables were a proprietary slim design. I don't think you would be able to safely tinker with the arm unless you were a B&O shop. While they were mechanically excellent, they could only use B&O cartridges which is very limiting. Changing the RCA cables will be a minor difference, best only to be pursued if the originals are damaged
