Turntable cable Melodika MDPHD20 Purple Rain Black Edition — 2m, 2xRCA PHONO with ground wire

Melodika MDPHD20 Purple Rain Black Edition is a 2‑metre phono interconnect cable engineered for connecting turntables to phono inputs or amplifiers. The cable provides dual RCA (2xRCA PHONO) terminations and an integrated ground wire to reduce hum and interference, ensuring a cleaner analog signal path for vinyl playback systems. Its length and connector format make it suitable for typical home hi‑fi setups where a dedicated grounded connection is required.

Advantages

The cable combines a fixed 2 m length with standard RCA phono connectors and a ground lead to simplify installation and reduce common turntable grounding issues. Construction focuses on maintaining signal integrity between the turntable cartridge and the phono stage, while the integrated ground wire offers a straightforward way to eliminate grounding hum without additional adapters. The connector configuration is compatible with most consumer amplifiers and phono preamps.

Suitable for

• Connecting a turntable to an amplifier or phono preamp with RCA phono inputs
• Vinyl playback systems requiring a grounded connection to prevent hum
• Home hi‑fi setups where a 2 m cable length is appropriate

Key specifications

• Length: 2 metres
• Connector type: Dual RCA (2xRCA PHONO)
• Integrated grounding: Ground wire included
• Intended use: Phono interconnect for turntables

How to use

Attach the RCA connectors to the corresponding left and right phono inputs on the amplifier or phono preamp, matching colors or labels where present. Connect the integrated ground wire from the cable to the turntable’s ground terminal or screw to minimize hum. Route the cable to avoid tight coils or sharp bends and keep it separated from power cables to reduce interference. Verify connections and set the amplifier’s input to the phono stage before playback.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, keep the cable length as straight and untwisted as possible, avoid running it parallel to mains cables, and ensure the ground wire is securely fastened to the turntable chassis or designated grounding terminal.
