CUTTING DOWN A TONEARM CABLE


Is there any reason why a tonearm cable cannot be cut down to a shorter length? - I have too much length on my tonearm cables

You could have made the issue clear from the beginning.

Is this correct?

1. this has nothing to do with a factory din or rca connector.

2. you need to desolder and resolder INSIDE a phono stage?

3. you will get someone competent to do the work

4. existing cable is ’inconveniently’ too long, While desoldering/soldering you want to shorten it to ___ (leave yourself enough slack)

question: any guidance on length?

btw, title says cable (singular), in post you said too much on cables (plural). in that case, other cables: they do involve din or rca connections? 

are these expensive cables?
