I was actually looking for a mouth with retractable cord because I was reading some where that it got good wires. I don't have MS mouth so will try to find one in thrift store. I've got some old HP mouth and will check it tonight.Old Microsoft Mouse make for a Good TT wire donor.

Check with a dentist. I hear no one knows mouths better.
The best wire you can use is no wire. We had very good results by moving the phono preamp inside the chassis, it's input directly under the tone arm. The pre amplified signal is much more robust than the micro volts from the cardridge, does not pick up that much dirt and is less sensitive for the cable you use.
May be an option, if your phono amp is modular
I agree 100% about wires but I've got Parasound JC 3 pre. It is relatively new, I'm not sure if it is modular and I'm planning to sell it at some point so I should not really touch it. I've got Denon transformer. I can probably fit inside the plinth which I still have to build. I have a noise issue in my analog set up which I could not resolve no matter what I 've tried so fitting a transformer in the plinth could be a potential remedy to my problem.
