Detail 01
Swivel connector
The plug end rotates, so the cable leaves the mic at an angle instead of forcing a hard bend.

D'AddarioSwivel Mic Cable XLR (Male) XLR (Female) 10 ft.
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 10-foot balanced XLR cable with a swiveling connector, for miking on a crowded stage or a tight studio setup.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Miking a cabinet or kit where a straight plug would hit something
- Short runs from mic to a nearby stand-mounted preamp or snake
- Studio use where you want the cable to sit flat against a wall
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Long stage runs from the back line to front of house
- Instrument or line-level gear that needs a 1/4-inch plug
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
XLR male to XLR female
The standard mic-cable pinout. Male end goes into the mixer or interface input, female onto the mic.
Detail 03
Balanced signal
Three-conductor design cancels hum and noise picked up along the run. Better than unbalanced for mic level.
Detail 04
10 feet
Enough for a mic to a nearby stage box or desk. Short enough to stay tidy underfoot.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Ten feet is short. Measure your mic-to-input distance first
- 02Cable only. No mic clip, stand, or adapter included
- 03Do not use it as a speaker cable for a passive PA cabinet
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this for a condenser mic that needs phantom power?
Yes. Phantom power runs over a standard balanced XLR cable, so this passes it from the preamp to the mic.
02What does the swivel actually do?
The connector rotates so the cable can exit sideways or downward. It stops the cable from kinking where it meets a mic in a tight spot.
03Will this work with my audio interface?
Yes, if the interface has an XLR mic input. The male end plugs into the interface and the female end onto the microphone.
04Can I connect two of these to reach further?
Yes. The male and female ends mate, so cables chain together. Each extra connection is one more point that can fail.
