I've been considering rewiring the tonearm on my Sansui SR-929 with some cardas 33awg. Maybe also replacing the existing RCA plugs with some new ones (or even xlr jacks if i'm going to rewire the arm). I don't need the balanced output at the moment, but i figure if i'm rewiring it, i might as well future proof it.
The concept doesn't seem "that" hard... but my solder skills are entry-level at best. If the table wasn't older than me, and replacement parts weren't an issue, i would probably just dive in, but i couldn't bare to accidentally damage this thing.
If i was to get a professional to do it, here are my questions:
1) is it even worth it? Does rewiring the arm really make a difference?
2) Where in NYC would you trust someone to do this?
3) What would one expect to pay?
