What type of RCA cable did you end up using? Do you recommend any in particular. I'm looking to replace the ones in my Technics Sl-1300 MK2. I have done some searching, but everybody seems to buy the cheapest they can find. I saw some post that recommend using one with low impedance.
hod did you wire the rca cables to the tone arm im havin hum in a sl 1950 just replaced the rca wires and moved te black tone arm wires instead of soldering them toghether with the green one i hav ehum even with the ground cable this its noticible when amp volume its a half
That tonearm has NO dampening. Either it's assembled wrong or the previous owner used sewing machine oil or something instead of 500.000cst silicone oil
@@millervintagehifi3034 There's a great video by the Turntable Guy where he's fixing that cueing damping issue which seems to be common for sl-1300, 1400 and 1500 models.
Always use good quality phono cables. Nice record player. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Hi, do you know the gauge of the 2nd cables you used?
I do not.

I typically use what I have available and try to match the original cable...if I buy new, I but Monster RCA to 3.5mm adapter cables.

Hopefully you were able to find a resolution.
Do you know if the tone arm plastic clip is glued on or screwed on?
I don't have one in front of me at the moment and I cannot remember...

Excellent observation - stay tuned for a video on damping the tonearm on the SL 1300.

@@millervintagehifi3034 Do you have to unsolder the tone arm wires to fix the damping on a sl 1300?
@@bignasty3513 Look for the video referenced in the reply above - apparently I never did a follow up on this 1300 from last year.
