Everything helps. Why spoil your audio system by using iffy phono plugs.
Phono connection can be pretty variable at the best of times dependent on
the make, manufacturing tolerances etc. But hey we're stuck with the phono
connection so we'd better make the best of a 'bad' job.
In my time I've manufactured many thousands of phono cables as a business,
in the course of things I've used most of the more popular makes WBT,
Neutrik, Vampire, RS etc etc... but a plug that was always dependable with
tight manufacturing tolerances and excellent construction without paying
silly money is the Deltron DGS Pro-Audio. I'm not connected with Deltron in
any way but if you want a really good plug (no pun intended) thats it.
Just my 2p's worth.


If you want to buy a lot, try Studiospares. They give quantity discounts.
