15 ft XLR thoughts (BJC/Mogami etc)


I need a pair of 15 ft XLR cables to go between my PS Audio preamp and Mark Levinson amp.

I am looking at around $100/pair cables from BJC. BJC uses either Belden 1800F or Canare L-4E6S. Others recommend Mogami cables in a similar price range. BJC is a local company for me, so I like to buy theirs unless there is a compelling reason to go elsewhere. At 15 ft, is either the BJC Belden or Canare going to make any real difference? I live in a smallish town, most RF interference would likely be from a cell tower. Don’t know of any within 1/2 mile. Also, is 15 ft considered a "short run"?

Thanks

I don't think there's a compelling reason not to use the Canare or Belden cable that BJC provides.

I wouldn't consider 15 ft a long run for a balanced, shielded cable at line level.

The natural alternative would be cables assembled to order from Mogami W2549 by someplace like ProAudioLA, who have given me great service in the past. (They do take returns, but with a small restocking charge.)

While you might hear very slight differences among those three options, difference are not likely to be musically significant.

Others will give you reasons to spend as much as a car on wires. Those reasons are mostly specious.

15’ is a short run. The BJC are fine cables for the $ with quick shipping ( in normal times )
enjoy !!!
