High Performance OFC Turntable Cable with Ground Wire
A vinyl LP (long-playing) record plays through a purely mechanical process that converts microscopic physical movements into sound.
Turntables use either a moving magnet (high-impedance) or moving coil (low-impedance) cartridge. The stylus traces the record’s grooves, translating the groove modulations into an electrical signal that is sent to connected audio components—typically a phono preamp, integrated amplifier, or receiver.
AMERICAN RECORDER’s high-performance turntable audio cable is engineered to faithfully and naturally transmit these extremely delicate, low-level signals.
Our turntable cables are built using a proprietary twin-lead cable design, featuring 27 AWG oxygen-free copper (OFC) center conductors surrounded by a 100% spiral shield. This optimized geometry and low capacitance ensure superior signal transfer with minimal noise while preventing high-frequency loss.
An 18 AWG chassis ground wire, terminated with a fork connector, is included for proper grounding. The ground wire extends 6 inches at each end, allowing for easy connection to a chassis ground screw. A durable yet supple outer PVC jacket ensures easy installation and long-term reliability.
