With a Grado Prestige series you might be able to get away with a 10' low capacitance cable, but it would be better if you got an outboard phono stage which would probably outperform the one in your old receiver?
Blue Jeans makes a cable that is 12.2 pF/foot, still seems a long way to go for a tiny signal. Those cables are stiff and unwieldy. Belden 1505F is a much thinner, more flexible cable at 17pF/foot.
There are some new inexpensive phono stages that are reportedly very nice. Emotiva makes one for $150. Vista and Lounge are $300.
