AudioQuest - Tower RCA > RCA 10' Analog Audio Interconnect Cable with RCA to RCA Connectors - Black with White Stripes

These are my first AudioQuest rca cables. Good build quality. They don’t color the sound in any way, and that’s a good thing. Priced right for entry level cables. Tower by AudioQuest are a great value. I am using to connect turntable to phono stage pre amplifier and another pair to headphone amplifier. I would recommend and purchase again.

These are great cables. I’ve cheap ones, expensive ones and these, which offer a great balance of performance and price.

I recently built a sturdy turntable stand, but it was a longer distance to my pre-amp than I had cabling for. I had a set of good phono cables (3ft) to run from turntable to phono pre-amp, now I needed 6+ feet to go from phono pre-amp to main pre-amp. These are not outragiously priced and of good quality (I have other AudioQuest cables). Now I have a total of 13 ft of cables running from my turntable. Hooked them up, was dead quiet and no loss of output for that long of run and sounded great. The RCA connection ends are a nice snug fit, easy to read left/right coloring.

I had some Amazon Basic cables, that got the job done an all but… and they would be fine for a setup that doesn’t have much power behind it. As I was reading about why pure copper cables are better or not it came up that CCA cables in a high powered system could be fire risk. I decided that I would upgrade my cables in my system with the AT LP-120 in it. I run my LP-120 through a tube pre-amp to a pair of Klipsch “The Fives” and wanted to protect not only my components of my system but my home from fire risk. Beside the protection points there was also an audible sound difference. It made it sound clearer, much tighter, and less noisy. If you aren’t one who thinks that less money means less quality these are a great upgrade. I even swapped them into my secondary set up of the LP-60 with a pair of $100 Edifier speakers and it cleared that system up also, yet I think they are a bit overkill in that system. I even recommended them to a family member that I was helping upgrade their turntable a few months ago.

I have a pc set-up to convert Vinyl LP's to CD's. I needed a good quality audio cable to replace the 3' long cable I had which connects between my pre-amplifier and USB interface box . This one is of exceptional quality and at 2' is just the right length.
