Why Korf Cable?
There are hundreds, if not thousands, of tonearm cables on the market. Why offer another one?
Most of the hum problems experienced by our customers can be solved by using a correctly designed tonearm cable. Unfortunately, many available cables bunch up all the ground connections together, making hum issues hard to solve.
Following overwhelming customer demand, we decided to offer a very simple cable that provides true instrumentation connection from the Korf tonearm to the preamplifier or MC step-up transformer. The two articles explaining why such a connection is best are linked below.
What Causes Turntables to Hum?
How do I get rid of the hum? I've changed a cartridge, a preamp, a tonearm, a cable, I moved house, or I just moved the stereo to another side of the room—and now there's intrusive hum!
Moving Coil Transformer Hum—How to Fix
We discussed hum in the turntable when the cartridge is directly connected to the preamp. Immediately, I got dozens of requests: "Please do the same for the moving coil transformers!"
