D'Addario XLR Cable - Microphone Cable - Shielded for Noise Reduction - XLR Male to XLR Female - Classic Series Balanced Mic Cable - 25 Feet/7.62 Meters - 1 Pack

These cables are perfect for studio and home use. I was once fooled by Mogami's marketing into paying $50 for 10 feet of cable. Why do that when you can get more or less the same quality and 15 or 20 feet of cable for around $20. There is no difference in audio quality, the quality of materials is great and will last many years. There just isn't a good reason to buy a more expensive cable. These D'addario ones are the perfect combination of quality and value.

Bought 5 in 2020. They are used daily in a church building shared to 3 churches. Many times they are set up by people "helping" so they get get plugged in wrong, wrapped really tight, pulled and tossed back in piles. They survive and still look and work great. Some day, people will consistently wrap and hang them back properly :). The connectors show little wear and clip in without binding or feeling loose. The cables have the correct level of limpness and flexibility. They have the correct feel unlike some others where the cable feels like a "rubber band." Every time I see them in stores and online, I am tempted to buy more.

Nothing special here, it does what it is supposed to do.

This will be used for an at home studio- seems to be solidly made with the D'Addario quality I expected at a very affordable price.

Yes. Buy this if you need an XLR cable. It does its job.

i ORDERED THIS AND IT GOT HERE TODAY, FIRST OFF, IT GOT HERE REALLY FAST. THE CABLES SEEM.....VERY STRONG! THEY LOOK STURDY AND FOR SOME REASON THEY LOOK LIKE GOOD CABLES! LOL I ORDERED A FOCUSRITE SAFFIRE PRO 24 BUT IT HASNT CAME YET SO I DONT KNOW EXACTLY THE QUALITY AND IM ALSO USING A STUDIO PROJECTS C1 MIC SO I HAVE A FEELING ITS GOING TO TURN OUT GOOD, AND OH YEAH! GREAT DEAL! THIS EXACT CABLE IS AT MUSICIANS FRIEND FOR ABOUT 35 DOLLARS AND I GOT IT FOR 17 SO GREAT!

I prefer D'addario cables because, after watching several cable shootouts on YouTube, they perform better with less noise than all of the other cables, including high end cables.

The only issue I had was the guts in the female connector were 180 degrees off. Once I sorted that out it plugged into the mixer properly.
