Putting a new end on a XLR cable
I have a pair of Tara Labs 3 meter interconnects and I’ve lost a wire connection in the left cable. (It’s playing softer than the right one) For the life of me, I can’t figure out how they built it so I can take the end off, re solder the connection and put it back together. If I can’t figure out how to do it myself, My other options are cutting the end off and buying a good XLR plug or sending it back to the company and potentially paying as much as $500 for the repair.
Anyone here know how to take apart a Tara Labs XLR cable?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks @carlsbad I’ll check those out. I’ve bought from them before. Chris is good people. |
BEWARE. Some cables use teflon insulation. When teflon is heated past 250C, it releases HF, one of the most corrosive and toxic substances known. You have a few alternatives: solder outside, at eye level or above. Or use a ventilated fume hood and a respirator (that's what I do). Or send them to someone who is equipped to handle teflon. Or pray. Good luck. |
