Meanwhile: If you are going to use a SUT, this actually is a Big Deal that will profoundly affect the Sound you get from your system, regardless of which connectors or solder you use.  I recommend you integrate the SUT (with its broken-in cartridge) before you spend a ton on connectors.


Thanks Paul, yes I'll use SUT of course. The candidates (in the order of intellectual preference): convincing Tribute Pieter to wind in silver, LL1941Ag, silvercore mc25Ag. And no, I'm not gonna spend a ton on the village connectors. Actually the more I dive in the "DIY RCA swamp", the more I'm inclided to really try a continuous tonearm cable run from the cart to the phono input with a DIY cable from the tonearm base on (Teflon tubing, PTFE foam, heavy Cu braid, I think I could even bias PTFE foam like Audioquest) and a Ag/teflon symmetric connector of my choice.
