CBI LowZ Microphone Cable with Neutrik Connectors

High-quality cable from CBI!
Musicians understand the value of good cables. In many cases, we can't share our music without them. Every time we plug in a microphone, connect a speaker, or route an effects processor to the mixer, we're putting our trust in these skinny bits of copper. At their best, cables go unnoticed. The gig goes off without a hitch, and everybody's happy. But when there's a cable problem, everyone knows. The music cuts in and out. Static seems to pop up out of nowhere. Sometimes our music fights to be heard with the radio station that springs out of our speakers. These problems can be a nightmare to troubleshoot, because we use so many cables on the stage. Usually everything looks fine, so it's difficult to know which cable is the culprit. You can avoid these issues with the MLN Performer Series from CBI. They only use top-of-the-line components for long-lasting, reliable performance, every time.

Premium Belden cable
At its core, this cable uses two balanced center-conductors made with Belden's best 22-gauge stranded copper. The balanced design naturally rejects radio frequency interference and electrical hum for clean, quiet signal transfer. Belden cable is extremely flexible, with a durable jacket to protect the core. This jacket shields the inner strands from breakage and keeps dirt and moisture from shorting out the conductors. Since cables are constantly wrapped and uncoiled on tour, anything that preserves the integrity of the core leads to long life and hassle-free use.

Precision Neutrik connectors
The wire is certainly important, but the end-connectors usually take the most abuse. CBI chose Neutrik X-Series connectors for the male and female XLR ends. Their precision-engineered design offers smooth action for plugging in or out. While stiff connections lead to broken pins or cracked solder joints, Neutrik ends glide in and out. Always in a hurry to pack up the PA, musicians often tug on a cable to unplug the end. This tends to weaken the connection between the cable and the end; a common and hard-to-find symptom of a faulty cable. Neutrik's unique screw-on design provides 100% strain relief to protect this connection. When the end-cap is screwed tight, an inner clamp sandwiches around the cable jacket. When you pull on the cable, the clamp takes the force instead of the solder joints. The cable goes unnoticed, as it should. If a solder joint does come loose for some reason, you have easy access just by unscrewing the end-cap. You can make quick repairs, without having to buy new connectors.

Low-impedance design
These XLR cables come in a variety of sizes, from the smallest patch cord to the longest microphone- or monitor-extender. Their low-impedance (low-Z) design lets you route long runs to the mixer with full range performance, where high-Z cables would cause frequency dropouts. You won't lose any of your dynamic expression, so the audience hears your music exactly as you intended.

The CBI MLN Performer Series mic cables are extremely flexible and durable cables. They are constructed with Beldens 22-gauge, 2-conductor super low noise, ultra flexible audio cable, then fitted to Neutrik male and female XLR connectors.
