    $1000.00 is a lot of money for an arm cable!

    Default depends on if you want from cartridge to phono stage or din to phono...

    I'd find some Cardas or similar (Discovery, etc). Use a 5' run of 5 conductor from headshell to phono stage. All you need are cartridge clips, a ground "eyelet" and 2 good quality RCA male ends.

    Fewer cable "interfaces"= better sound and less soldering
