Default LP12 - replacing tonearm cable?

I'm considering replacing the tonearm cable in my LP12 (Ittok
LVII/Arkiv/Lingo/Microgroove+ phono stage) most likely with a Russ Andrews
TAK-Cu. Anybody got any opinions? It seems like a sensible kind of
upgrade, but I'm a little wary of Russ Andrews because he seems to sell a
lot of - in my opinion - snake oil. (£900 mains cables, mains purifiers
etc.)


BTW I wouldn't be fitting it myself - the deck's due a service, and I'd have
it fitted professionally then.


I haven't heard the Kimber you refer to, but I think it should work. Let
me know if it does: I have a similar LP12 (Ittok LVII/Arkiv/Valhalla).

Kimber may be pricier in the UK. The TAK-Cu is about $250 here.

Isn't there a new Linn tonearm cable? I couldn't find it on the website.
