XLR Male to XLR Female Cable - 100 Feet - Black, 16AWG, Gold Plated, Microphone & Interconnect - Stage Right Series

Well made and perform as expected. Excellent value. I’m using them in an office setting for podcasting, so they aren’t subject to stage abuse, but they feel like they would hold up well for that too.

UPDATE: I bought another years ago. I used it for close-ups when the commentator spoke on camera at a distance. This 1 1/2 foot cord then went to a TR-40 digital recorder concealed in their coat. I also used it when we did field interviews with a Shure 58 on a 10 foot cord. The cord took serious abuse. Dropped. Twisted. On the floor of trucks. Hanging on my shoulder as I ran with the camera and tripod. It finally developed a crackling. Sometimes, when it is moved in some directions. However, considering the abuse, I do not fault the manufacturer. I ordered another to replace the slightly broken cord. This is a good cord for the price -- however, it is not invulnerable. THE PAST REVIEW ------------- A dancer received an opportunity to travel free to Estonia --- if she worked as a video camera operator for a dance festival. A Canon XA10 video camera came with the assignment. But only a microphone with a 1/8th inch jack. The lower quality microphone negated the XLR features of the XA10. I ordered an AKG 170 and a Monoprice 104749 1.5 foot XLR cable. A short cable is required --- the cable must wrap around the microphone to avoid snags moving through crowds, markets, forests. The cable proved excellent. No rattles, no audio cracks, pure through-put of audio signal from the excellent AKG 170. Demonstration of microphone and cable at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_v1DyQBk-I Some wind noise. Didn't have time to make a windscreen for the AKG.

Good cable, amazing for the price.

good quality xlr cables. these work perfect for my microphone needs and i've had no issues after using these for quite some time!

Never had any issues with these xlr cables to send signals to sent audio to my monitors. Build quality is consistently inconsistent. I guess they recently stopped printing the AWG rating on the sheathe and it's a bit skinnier. Serviceable is a plus you can use these plugs if you ever want to upgrade the cable. Is the reason i like these monoprice cables. Decent serviceable plugs and decent cable but there's still room to upgrade in phases. Good stuff, good price.

This XLR cable works well doesn't have issues with EMI and is built tough as far as durability is concerned.

I'm very impressed by these cables. I moved to a new place and began having strange noises / hisses / hums / continues beeps in my professional audio interface inputs, which after investigating this issue online made me came to the conclusion that it's actually called "ground-loop" noise coming out from the home AC outlet and into my audio gear that is connected to it. At the beginning and before knowing that it's a ground-loop problem, I tried replacing the cables, but I naively used standard cheap ones from the local store and kept having these noises. Then I thought that it's my professional yet old 32-bit PCI audio interface card that might just signals me of its age, or that it's perhaps noise coming out from my PC motherboard to the PCI card. At this point I decided to upgrade to an external USB-C audio interface that would just sit externally from my PC and transfer audio from it via a USB-C cable, instead of analog ones (although the external audio interface still requires analog cables to connect to the speakers). I was hoping that the issue will go away and went buying one of the famous professional USB-C audio interfaces out there, which costed me about $1,300 USD including taxes and local profit of the local store in my country. However, I hooked up everything together (with the same and different cheap cables) and still had noise issues - different and less noticeable noise, as todays audio gear are perhaps more aware of such issues and have internal components that reduce varies noise problems. While the previous hisses / hum noise had gone, I was still having a continues beeping noise that was still there all along and more noticeable when I increased my speakers volume or used headphones. I almost went and ordered a power conditioner unit, but before that I convinced myself to order some high quality cables off Amazon and hoped for the best. I ordered the shortest 1.5ft ones as my audio gear are stacked and very close to each other. These cables are not cheap (I'd give you that) but thankfully, they actually SOLVED ALL OF THE NOISE PROBLEMS I WAS HAVING! I connected them between my audio synth stereo-mix output to the audio interface inputs and increased my speakers all the way to the maximum - at first I thought that no signal is coming out since it was 100% quiet(!), and then I played something on my synth and BAM! The high volume hit me. I was so amazed of the quiet signal and just couldn't believe that all I had to do is to replace the cables with high quality ones. These are truly a game changer and I'm so glad that I went in that route and bought them. After that experience I went and ordered 8 pieces of the 1/4 inch ones (same brand of course) to connect all of the 5.1 channels from my audio synth to the 8 individual inputs of my audio interface for recording the individual 5.1 channels arrangement at the same time. This is where I also learned about what "balanced" cables are, and that 1/4 inch TS cables (which are usually used for guitars) and 1/4 inch TRS cables are very different, not only because TS is mono and TRS is stereo, but TRS are also called "balanced cables" which can separate the ground noise from your audio as its has a dedicated ground pin from the signal, which is the sleeve; TS stands for "Tip-Sleeve" where the Tip is the L (left) channel and the Sleeve is the ground, and TRS means "Tip-Ring-Sleeve" where the Tip is the L (left) channel, the Ring is the R (right) channel, and the Sleeve is the ground. The XLR cables are working the same way as TRS cables, as they also have 3 pins in the connector. That said, cheap XLR/TRS cables would probably give you noise, so make sure that you use high quality cables if a clean input is what you're looking for. I'm not regretting for getting a new audio interface as I would eventually had to upgrade anyway, but at least now I'm more experienced and more aware that ground loop problems could be solved with high quality cables.

I've always been happy with Monoprice cables for the low price and decent quality. I needed one with heavier gauge to power some lights, and this did the trick.

They seem to be a better quality than other xlr cables.

Good product, good quality sound

very good product. thanks

Best

The cable has a nice feel and flexibility, seems to be of a reasonable build quality, and as far as I can tell delivers the acoustic signal transparently as it should.
