Hi Glen thanks for the reply. My turntable comes with a RCA cable set as far as I know. So is that sufficient or would I need anything else?You don’t want your speakers sitting on the same surface as your turntable because of vibration etc
Diy speaker stands are very cheap
So you can get tweeer at ear level
A few designs are on here ( have a search)
You will need a double cable (or 2 singles)to connect phono preamp to the amplifier (external of speakers or internal for actives)
Most likely rca to rca at this stage. But wait until you know what connection you need and how long. You will need connection jacks so to extend phono cable to active speakers if it has a phono amp on it ( a few £ or€)
Quality of Cables matter but only up to the quality of pro audio cables which you buy from a music instrument shop etc €20 each max
To get the same quality in a hifi or audiophile cable is a ripoff. And quality above pro cables are marginal or imaginary.
Keep cables short and tidy and power cables away from signal cables if possible
Look at Worlds best cables on amazon
then the amazon own brand version for cheaper version
Designacable.com in the uk look good and will be my next cable purchase
They have cables of different price ranges starting at £9.95 each
