Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 25-foot balanced XLR mic cable with swivel connectors. Standard stage and studio length for mics on a stand.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Mic on a stage stand back to a snake or console
- Studio runs from a vocal booth to the interface
- Anyone needing slack for repositioning without coiling excess
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Short desk or podcast runs where 25 feet is clutter
- Instrument or guitar duty — this is an XLR mic cable
- Line-level patching inside a rack, where a 3-footer is cleaner
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
Balanced
Two signal conductors cancel picked-up noise, so long runs stay quiet near lighting and power.
Detail 03
25 feet
Enough to reach a stand across a stage. Long enough that you should learn a proper over-under coil.
Detail 04
Swivel connectors
The shell rotates, so the cable relieves twist instead of transferring it to the solder joints.
Detail 05
Black jacket
Disappears on a dark stage. Add your own tape or tags if you need to tell cables apart.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Carries phantom power fine, but the interface supplies it, not the cable
- 02Nothing else is included — no clip, bag or velcro tie
- 03Coil it over-under from day one or the jacket will take a set
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this for my guitar?
No. Guitars use a 1/4-inch unbalanced cable. This is XLR, for microphones and other balanced gear.
02Will it pass phantom power for a condenser mic?
Yes. A standard balanced XLR cable carries 48V from your interface or console to the mic without any extra hardware.
03Is 25 feet too long for home recording?
It's generous but usable. The slack lets you move a stand around a room. For a fixed desk setup, a shorter cable is tidier.
04Which end goes on the microphone?
The female end plugs into the mic's male pins. The male end goes into your preamp, mixer or audio interface input.
