VPI table owners, help please.


I'm using the SuperScoutmaster with VPI signature arm and Dynavector XX2 or 17D3 cartridge. I'm using an Ayre P-5xe phono stage. Was wondering what cables you guys & gals have been using (or not using because?) between your arm and phonostage? I run RCA from arm to phono. Looking in the $500.00 range new for 1m pr. Any opinions would really help.
Rest of the system is VPI SDS, Ayre K-1XE preamp, Parasound JC-1 monoblocks, and Thiel CS7.2 speakers.

I'm using an ELCO Audio SR-22R ribbon silver interlink from my JMW-9 memorial arm with Benz-Micro ACE lo to my Acoustech PH-1 phono stage.
After having about 12 interlinks between them this was the one what sounded the most neutral.
I've tryed: Cardas, vd.Hul, Harmonic Tech., LAT Int., Kimber, Nordost, Shunyata, Audioquest, Audionote and Siltech. Al in the price range between $250,- and $750,- but the $320,- Elco was the most neutral sounding one for this treat.

Just an update. Have been using the Audioquest Cheetahs for a while now and feel no need to change. (well, maybe the Skys)
I also Audioquest cables throughout my system, but I use the Chimera IC for my phono. Not real cheap and a long wait to get them, I have an extra pair; but they are 1.5 meters.
Yes, I know that Cardas is recommended, but I have an all Ayre system, and nothing was quite as bad as Cardas. As a matter of fact, Ayre branded cable is Cardas. I don't know why Ayre recommends it except perhaps for the bottom line. I use the cheapy Anti-Cables. As I mention in other posts, I have had just about every top notch cable in my system, and nothing was as good. Audioquest Silver was my second choice, but clearly a second choice. Cardas was absolutely the worst...the power cords are particularly bad. I use a balanced configuration on my VPI tonearm and use the AntiCables from the XLR out of the VPI to the Ayre K1xe in.
