Canare Star Quad Mic Cable - 5', Red

The Canare Star Quad Mic Cable (5 foot, red) comes pre-assembled in a variety of lengths and colors with a matte finish jacket. Both ends are meticulously hand soldered using premium Neutrik XLR-3 connectors with black chrome shells and gold plated contact pins. 

This cable is flexible, even in sub-zero weather. It rejects EMI, RFI, and handling noise to provide you with a reliable audio feed. The interior features a high-density copper braid shield. It also has excellent connector pull strength for durability under rugged production setups. It features Neutrik XLR 3-pin connectors (male, female).

You can use this 5' microphone cable for multiple purposes, which is a good reason to stock several in your production arsenal. Here are a few helpful options for your reference:

• Microphones
• Rack Wiring
• Studio Audio Tie Lines
• Patch Cords
• Snake Systems
• PA Mixers

Canare Star Quad 

The Canare Star Quad mic cords were designed for microphones, but also function with all line-level signals. That means you can use this cable with your mixer or your power amplifier. The 4-conductor Star Quad arrangement cancels electromagnetically induced noise from SCR dimmer packs, fluorescent lighting ballasts and AC power transformers. Handling noise is prevented by use of cotton filler material. Excellent frequency response is maintained due to special irradiated polyethylene insulation which provides a low capacitance dielectric.

The cable is super flexible due to large numbers of thin wire strands in both the conductors and overall shield. The manufacturer extrudes  a special compound PVC outer jacket that remains pliant at extremely low temperatures with no wait between cold shipping and installation.

Per manufacturer, this cable is 100% test and quality controlled.

NOTE: The signal generated by a microphone during quiet periods can be very low in level, -70dB to -120dB (0.3 millivolts to 1 microvolt). The cable that must carry this signal to the mixer is very sensitive to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and electrostatic coupling of hum and noise. Mechanical vibration, bending, flexing (handling noise) and ambient temperature fluctuations can cause detrimental capacitance changes within the microphone cable. Canare Cables are carefully designed and manufactured to very close tolerances using the highest quality materials available so that low level microphone circuits will not be affected by these outside disturbances. The difference is clearly measurable and audible.
