Know before you buy
Phono cartridges are highly sensitive to capacitance, which can significantly alter the frequency response of your vinyl playback. At 90pF, this cable is specifically engineered to maintain the tonal balance and detail required for accurate analog signal transmission.
Yes. The cable utilizes a helical OFC shield paired with a conductive TPE sub-jacket to effectively block electromagnetic interference, which is essential for the low-level signals produced by turntables.
Silver-plated connectors provide a highly conductive surface that ensures a reliable, low-resistance connection between your turntable and phono stage, helping to minimize signal coloration.
The cable is 1.23 meters (4.01 feet) long. This length is standard for most turntable setups, but you should ensure your turntable and phono preamplifier are positioned relatively close to one another to avoid signal loss.
The halogen-free TPE jacket is a durable, flexible material that is safer for the environment and resistant to wear. Its flexibility makes it easy to route behind your equipment rack without putting unnecessary stress on the connectors.
