Turntable placement Advise.

I recently added a turntable to my system. I'd like to placed it on top of my center channel speaker right below the flat screen TV. Other than that I would have to place it about 18' away and I think maybe that is too far for a phono/component cable.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks.

I would rather have the 18 foot run from phono preamp to system preamp than expose my TT to that much vibration. Bad idea.

Well you can't put it on a speaker so it'll have to go 18 feet away. How about a phono amp beside it to drive the cable? Or wall mount it to the side of the center speaker. ..

Agree. Either wall mount it or buy a stand-alone table from IKEA or maybe 2nd hand. Then use isolation under the TT. Also you'll need a shielded phono/RCA cable for a longer run.
