Hi, I am having vibration/feedback issues with my current turntable location and would like to move it to the other end of the room. Is a 30ft connection from the phono (vp-130) to the preamp ( slp-98 ) too long?
As far as I heard, most cable manufacturers don't recommend phono cable longer than 2 meters. I would either better isolate the table or try longer IC between preamp and power amp. Phono signal is so low that it is susceptible to noise such as RFI.
Almarg, Thanks for correcting me. Even between phono stage and preamp, long cable is also not a good idea IMHO. I believe long cable (if done right) is fine between pre and power amp.
Another thought is to replace the Vandersteen with some small monitor speakers and a subwoofer that can be placed away from the turntable. If you love the Vandersteen, then this won't work of course. Just a thought.
