Detail 01
Quad conductor (Neglex Quad)
Four conductors instead of two, wired in opposing pairs. Cancels magnetic hum better than standard two-conductor mic cable.

Independent shopping perspective
A 15-foot balanced XLR mic cable with Neutrik connectors and quad-star conductor layout. For studio and stage runs where noise pickup is a problem.

What matters in use
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 01
Four conductors instead of two, wired in opposing pairs. Cancels magnetic hum better than standard two-conductor mic cable.
Detail 02
Sends the signal twice, out of phase. The input flips one back and cancels whatever noise both picked up along the way.
Detail 03
The industry standard shell and latch. Positive click on the male pin, and the strain relief holds up to repeated coiling.
Detail 04
Reaches from a vocal mic to a nearby interface or from a stage box to a mic stand without a big coil on the floor.
Detail 05
Female into the mic, male into the preamp or console. Runs mic level or line level equally well.
Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
Yes. Balanced XLR cable passes 48V phantom from your preamp or interface to a condenser mic. The cable itself doesn't generate it.
It uses four conductors in opposing pairs so magnetic interference hits both pairs equally and cancels out. The difference shows up near dimmers, transformers, and power runs.
No. Guitars use unbalanced 1/4 inch jacks. You'd need a different cable, or a DI box to convert the guitar signal to balanced XLR.
Yes, if the interface has XLR mic inputs. That covers nearly every interface with a preamp, including combo jacks that take both XLR and 1/4 inch.
