Phono cable advice.


What are some good phono cable options for around $150ish and under? So far I’m looking at BJ LC-1 and Zu Audio Mission cables. This would be for between my Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC Esprit and most likely (still looking) a MoFi StudioPhono preamp. I have an extra pair of Kimber Silver Streak cables but they don’t look insulated well enough. I’ll be running DH Labs Air Matrix from my preamp to KEF LS50 Wireless speakers. I’d like something I can grow out a little with as I incrementally upgrade things. Stylus (Blue 2M?) is probably next.

Thanks for any input.

I run the ZU Audio phono cable on my modest system. I have the Project Debut Carbon DC with many upgrades, new platter, Herbies mat, arm lift, upgraded feet and Nagaoka MP110-H cartridge. I run the Schiit Audio phono preamp and a Marantz SR 7010 receiver preamped to a luxman M 117 amplifier. I picked up my ZU Audio cable on ebay and was very impressed with the quality of the cable for the price. I love the musicality and definition of this moderately priced system.
