Ortofon 6NX-TSW-1010
Ortofon RCA cable designed for turntables, made of 7-strand 5N copper with dedicated shielding to connect turntable and phono amplifier.
Description
The 6NX-TSW-1010 is an RCA interconnect cable from Ortofon, designed specifically to connect a turntable to a phono stage or amplifier. It is aimed at vinyl enthusiasts who wish to take care over the link between their turntable and the rest of their system, this cable being conceived as a link dedicated to this use rather than a general-purpose RCA cable.
Its construction relies on a 7-strand 5N copper technology, a copper offering a purity of 99.99999%. This level of refinement aims to limit signal loss and alteration along its path between the turntable's cartridge and the phono input. The cable also incorporates exclusive shielding, intended to protect the signal, which is particularly weak at the cartridge output, from external interference.
This type of cable is aimed at turntable users seeking a dedicated RCA link, suited to the specific nature of the phono signal, rather than a generic RCA lead used for any type of source. It is therefore primarily relevant to installations where the turntable holds a central place in listening.
What to check before buying used
Check the condition of the RCA connectors: a loose or slightly oxidised wire on this type of cable is enough to cause crackling or channel loss, the phono signal being particularly weak before amplification. Also inspect the sheath and shielding along the entire length, looking for marked creases, cuts or visible braiding that would indicate wear or mishandling. Finally, check that the plugs correspond correctly to the channel colours (left/right) with no inversion or improvisation.
