VPI TT output problem-Cold solder joint or what?

Vinyl Asylum

Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

I have a VPI Aries version 1. The right channel goes totally out intermittently. After spending some time narrowing things down it appears to be the right output jack on the TT. The problem can be corrected by taking the RCA male ended interconnect in and out of the VPI female jack a few times. The interconnect is fine as I had the same problem using another interconnect. The TT uses RCA connectors for outputs and not a 5 pin DIN connection.
What is the likely cause? A cold solder joint or what? Thanks, in advance, for your suggestions.
