IIRC, PBJ is unshielded and not appropriate for phono leads.

**Removed platter.
Locate the large, plastic screw thingy. It's white and about 15mm diameter.
Remove thingy.
Lift turntable chassis out CAREFULLY!

PBJ isn't acceptable for this application. Any well shielded low
capacitance cable will work fine. Chuck

ok i got the table open now whats involved in replacing the
leads?
I see the screws there under the arm. is this interconnect sodered?
or is it a din plug?

I have just never done this before to a turntable.
I use a sony lx350 right now and it has rca so I am using a good phono
interconnect there
i dont want to put that interconnect on the thorens. it is shielded bu it is
too stiff.

by the way the sony lx350 performs pretty good seems as good or better as my
Rega 2
(which i sold earlier in the year)

I still need suggestions for replacement interconnect
low capaticance shielded?
type suggestions?
price ranges?
sources?

Which SONIC problem do you want to solve.

I do not understand you choices, but I skipped googling to find your how
your other decks are superiour.

You need to do nothing. We can talk wire sound and component sound in other
contexts, but you also need to know what to leave as it is because it works
as it is. Replacing tone arm wiring is not a good project for one who has a
problem taking the grammophone apart, leave it be.


Kind regards

Why? Is there a problem you are trying to fix?

Chances are that there are a dozen other issues with
the turntable that are far more audible than the type
of signal wiring. You are asking about re-arranging
the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Then you will have a very difficult time replacing the
signal wiring. Very strongly NOT RECOMENDED!

If you want to discuss magic cables, this is the wrong
newsgroup. Most people in r.a.t and r.a.p are practical
technical and artistic people who mostly don't believe
in such snake oil.

Note that most of the wiring in a turntable is an
extremely fine specialty cable that goes from the
pickup cartridge through the arm and to some
kind of termination where it is joined to a connector
or "flying leads" out of the turntable base. Kimber
doesn't make this kind of cable. Indeed few (if any?)
people make this kind of cable anymore.

or other suggestions?

You are tilting at windmills and wasting your money.

Note that there are other newsgroups where windmill
tilting and wasting money and magic cables (and
magic rocks, etc.) are discussed regularly. But not
here.

i want to put a new set of leads on this table
I do not want to rewire the cartridge wire

Replace those then, or simpler even: polish them! - fix what is broken, do
not fix what is not broken.
