XLR cable for basic beginner

SOUNDSILVER.

Contact Stewart. He posts his stuff for sale here. Great sounding Silver XLR cables for way less than a $100!

Awesome build and great construction!

I too use Mogami Gold Studio xlr cable. A good source is B&H Photo Video.

For unbalanced cables, I've been pleased with Markertek's terminated Mogami 2534 cable.

Sam (C1Ferrari) -- FYI, my understanding is that the main differences between the Mogami 2534 and their AES/EBU cables are:

1)The AES/EBU cables have somewhat lower capacitance, which would only make a difference if cable length is long AND the output impedance of the component driving the cable is high. In that situation it would provide a more extended upper treble.

2)The AES/EBU cables have somewhat higher inductance, which shouldn't make any difference in a line-level interconnect.

The higher inductance and lower capacitance are a consequence of the AES/EBU cable's higher (110 ohm) characteristic impedance.

3)The AES/EBU cables do not have a star-quad configuration, which might mean a slightly increased susceptibility to noise pickup.

Wow,more to choose now,will check mogami wire soon.
U guys are rock,thanks

Harmonic Technology Cables are really good in XLR form in my opinion and great deals at used prices.

If you get interested I would try out the Truth Link series first as the SILWAY can be a little hot in the high end for entry level electronics.

Hi Al,

Thanks for the erudite reply...as always :-) The 110-ohm AES/EBU cable is Mogami 3173.

Vbr,

Sam
