Good choice for 20' XLR cable?


I'm thinking of moving my equipment rack to a side wall. If and when I do that, I will need a pair of 20' XLR cables to go between preamp and amp. I do not want to spend more than $1,500.00 for the pair, hopefully much less for decent quality. New or used is okay for me.

Do you have any thoughts or suggestions regarding a particular brand? 

Thank you.

I have a 20 foot run from my Hegel preamp to a Plinius amp with Tekton DI speakers.   Have used with several amps and preamps and the cable exposes the source material quality and showed the benefit of adding a power supply for the DAC.   Hands down great value - not going anywhere this is the make / model …Pangea Audio Premier True Balanced Interconnect

These Audio Sensibilities interconnects are worth a look.  7N copper and cryogenically treated.  Price is in Canadian $ so a 7m pair should be within your budget in US$.  They also have a cheaper XLR that’s about half the price of this one.

These Audio Envy interconnects have a good reputation and would also be well below your budget.

Probably can’t go too wrong with Mogami either.  Best of luck. 

@lovehifi22   I have been very satisfied with cables from Morrow in the past.  They have several price points to fit your budget.  They are always on sale so never buy unless 50% off min.  They have very good customer service and will answer your emails promptly.  Well worth looking at IMHO.  Cheers.

I have Transparent Audio XLR running my top end and Harmonic Technology Truth link running bass. But honestly all you need is a pair of Mogami gold AES/EBU XLR they actually sound fantastic and are a great bargin.

It’s worth trying Mogami Platinum cables with high-quality custom-made G&H silver-pin plugs, available on Amazon with a 30-day return warranty. The only drawback is their 25-foot length. They sound excellent and perform very well. With a price of about $300 per pair, you’re not taking much of a risk by giving them a try.
