Anu-anong ICs ba yun? Baka merong "specs" sheet sa mga website nila.

i have seen a Sansui power amp wherein the rca jacks are bigger than normal so modern plugs do not fit, moded to newer jacks to get rid of that issue...
That's OK, you can like or dislike anything you choose. That's the wonderful thing about the freedom

I'll try to check later kung ano2 since I can't recall at the top of my head. I was thinking kasi along the lines of how Master Jojo explained it in his illustration and wondering if there is something that I can measure using a tester to differentiate the ICs.
I can stop speaking but I cannot so easily silence my thoughts...

Sorry for bringing this topic up again but please explain to my layman's mind what makes the "best" IC the ideal one.  Different cables have different resistance and capacitance ratings.  Is there an ideal range or balance that one has to look for? 

In my case, I want to change the RCA cables in my turntable's phono out.  To make the problem more specific, would it be a good idea to use a shielded 22AWG RG-59 75ohm (22pf/ft or 72.16 pf/M capacitance) RCA cable to upgrade the stock cable of my Technics SL1200MK2 turntable? 

Thanks in advance for your wisdom and guidance.

snug fit works best....not too tight nor too loose....
how do we defend our freedom? by the truth when it is assaulted by Marcos lies....

Best answer I've found so far, Sir Tony.  Thanks! :)

If I may add, proper shielding and yung hindi na mamagnet yung core/conductor.
personally tried diff kinds of IC including the silver wire(but i think this is still copper with silver plating) but still goes back to the standard R59 coax and decent  rca jack.
