New Technics SL1200gr, anyone taken the leap.

Look for Signal Cable Silver Resolution handcrafted in NYC
Phono RCAs to RCAs available in various custom length.
I am using it now with LOMC cartridges.

It’s a great silver cable for reasonable price!

But i don’t use Neutrik RCAs that comes with this cable, i asked Frank to send me his cable with stripped ends to use much better RCA (The Xhadow).

excellent @chakster  hoping you'd chime in. I'm going to look into that cable. Copy that @upstateaudio  regarding the stand. 

"Hello last lemming. I just picked mine up. Have you upgraded the tonearm cable or mat?" 

I use use a Funk Firm mat.

Thanks for the tip on Signal Cable. I have some of Frank's cables on my other system. Great value. I just ordered mine.

knollbrent, hope you will report back once you've had the JLTi in your system awhile.  I bought an early version, then added a regulated outboard power supply before they began offering that as an option.

That was a few years ago and I continue to be very happy with mine.  I've used both the hi and low gain positions and have been pleased with both.
