interconnects for project x pack

[zappa 100]

Recently picked up a used pair of VDH 102 mk 3 interconnects with the intention of using them on my project xperience turntable. However when i tried them i got a lot of nasty distortion and my speaker cones began to throw a wobbler!! A very nice man at Henley audio,the importers of Project, told me this was due to earth returns or something within the cable being reamplified and causing aforementioned distortion.(i think that what he said!) Basically the 102's are not suitable with turntables and their motors. If this is so then what cables can you use with turntables? p.s the supplied cables do sound good but i'm always on the look out for ways to improve the sound.

Well I replaced my Project-supplied cable last night with a Nordost interconnect, and it sounds better. I haven't decided whether it's 75 quid better or not yet.
