I hope you do hear differences in cables though.

Sorry - was this question addressed to me?

Indeed my good man!
"I don't hear much surface noise at all from my records,".
Makes me wonder if you do hear all the improvements wrought by magic cables.
You can refuse to answer if you don't like the question.
I don't think that your audiophile bona fides would be affected by that.
Regards.
P.S. Vinyl noise is good noise as you can hear through it I read many years ago.
First of all, I have heard differences between cables, though I'm not a fan of super-expensive cables.I admit that a small fraction of my LPs do have intrusive noise, but for the most part it really does disappear behind the music. The reasons I believe that is particularly true in my system are:
a) My record deck (a Vectored Pink Triangle) is an exceptionally well-designed deck as far as resonance control is concerned, with a Funk Achromat which reduces surface noise relative to the original acrylic platter (which was already quiet);
b) I use a low-distortion, zero-feedback phono preamp (Vacuum State RTP3), which is far less confused by surface ticks and pops than any other I have had in my system.
I listen to CDs as well, but I don't find the noise floor subjectively enormously lower than with my record-playing front end, and more often than not I find LPs more musically satisfying..
