Sewell Silverback Screamer Bulk XLR Cable, 300 ft. Spool, Pure Copper, OFC, Flexible, Spiral Braided Shielding SW-30632, Black

I’ve had an xlr mic for a while I use to livestream gaming and record videos. Audio makes a huge difference in quality. I started with my xlr mic and switched to a usb for the RGB lighting options but had to sacrifice some audio quality but gained some ease of use as most of the mixing switched from my analog physical mixer to a software based one. I switched back to xlr because I recently found a usb xlr mic with rgb. I decided to test out the old xlr mic with the new xlr cables(this one) vs 2 different older ones I had before. Long story short this xlr cable gave the best quality along side having a better connection set up and reinforced metal connectors and the additional flexibility and durability my older rubber and older pvc cased wires didn’t quite offer. I am 6ft tall and this cord went from head to toe measuring side by side. My only issue is that the braided cable is a bit too thick to fit inside the joint in my boom arms and still allow the mic to move freely when both are connected. Simply running the cord around the outside with the provided Velcro strap solves this problem. I would but more in the future when I improve my set up.

I have not used this for runs over 20ft, so it’s hard to review on that end. I used it for mixer to patch/ rack related wiring, and it worked fine. I don’t hear any noise issues in that area. It is easy to work with snd has a soft, thick, workable jacket. Will buy it again for short runs but will always stick with mogami for long runs, or- mic lines. It’s very cost effective and. Comes on a sturdy, easy to pull reel.

Some benefits: 1.It stays in place and connects securely 2.It is an attractive looking cable 3.All parts appear well made and sturdy. Some issues: 1.There is some low noise on the line that occurs randomly. If you wiggle the wire/adjust to a different angle, then the noise goes away. The defect is more noticeable in recording, but has also occurred live. 2. Levels are suppresed, or lower than usual with this cable. If you have a hot line, this could be a good thing, but if you'd like a good strong signal, it is softer than other types of xlr wires. I like the looks of this wire enough to put up with its quirkiness, but it would not be my first choice in a situation that I need a perfectly working cord.

Mine's lasted 3 years, although it's not like I've moved it much or even switched mics more that a few times.

Not only is this a good looking cable (if you are into that sort of thing) but it is well made. I appreciate the smooth 2.5" spring strain reliefs on the back of each connector in addition to the internal strain relief. The back of the jacks can be unscrewed without tools, to allow you access to the terminals. The wires are of a good sized gauge. The solder joints were properly done, and properly trimmed, although they rely on the solder to hold the wires in place instead of inserting them through the pin holes for a solid mechanical connection. Despite this, I would expect them to hold up well under use. (I might take away a quarter star if I could.) The cable itself is well behaved, doesn't kink easily. It will coil very nicely when your gig is done. I am happy with my purchase and will by this type of cable again.

Good cable, soldered easily.

Very high quality musical instrument XLR cable. Well made and works perfectly. Money well invested for the long run!

I've bought this before, I really like the quality and flexibility. I consider it a top wire. I create my own cables, I tailor them according the specs of my clients and all of them have been beyond satisfied. However, I don't know why everytime I'm gonna refill my stock, the price changes so drastically. It's not a few dollars, the rise is more than $20 everytime. I know the situation is tough at the moment, but really?
