    My phono stage is valve based and currently being fed gogo juice by a Eupen. I need a slightly longer cable and was wondering if there are any mains leads that excel with valve gear?

    It's not big, or ultra flashy, I know it works very well on valve pre's even Overkill Audio's serious one.
    I feel though Andy, you would need to try it first, how long do you need?

    Just over a meter Tone, say 1.3M would suffice, maybe 1.5 to be sure

    Something that passes a lot of current (me after a bowl of muesli!?!? :) ) and RFI shielding are the order of the day.

    Tom (NOS-42....) made some up from an electrical supplier that looked just the job. Ive been meaning to ask him what the code/supplier was. It looked ideal.

    Tom??? u reading this budy?
