Denon DP 1200

I just picked up a Denon DP 1200 and it does not have an interconnect cable. It just has a female RCA connection and screw for a ground. My question is where can I find an RCA with ground. Any suggestions?

Some car audio leads do have the extra wire, which they use to switch a remote amplifier on (via a relay to handle the high currents), but the ones I’ve seen have been too high in capacitance for turntables, and that’s rarely mentioned, so you need to measure them to make sure they are actually low capacitance (150pF or less for a turntable, and preferably below 100pF).

Other than that, it may be best to use low capacitance 2 RCA to 2 RCA leads, and a separate earth wire for the ground – you can always use cable ties or tape to keep the earth wire together with the RCA leads.

That's a good point. Ill just use an RCA and ground wire separately. Thanks.
