Microphone Cables

Within our range of microphone cables are male to female XLR connectors or 6.3mm jack to XLR. These are the two different types of connectors you will find on any given equipment with a microphone input included, so we have you covered for any circumstances.

Our range of mic cables have a robust and high-quality build and are built to last. Even the highest quality microphones can sound poor if used with a low-quality cable, so our mic cables are all high-quality to ensure the best sound possible.

We offer these cables in lengths ranging from 1.5m to 20m, making them great for home or live uses. Cables that have male and female XLR connectors can also be combined with each other to extend the overall length. For example, if you connect a 20m and 10m XLR cable together, you then have a 30m cable which is great for larger distances.

What Makes Microphone Cables Unique?

Microphone cables, or mic cables for short, are specifically designed to transmit audio signals with clarity and reliability. Unlike standard cables used for other electronics, these cables are engineered to minimise interference and ensure the integrity of sound during transmission. This is achieved through features such as shielded wiring, which reduces the risk of electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, and robust connectors that maintain a stable connection even during extensive use.

Additionally, microphone cables are optimised for the low-impedance signals that microphones typically produce. This sets them apart from instrument or speaker cables, which operate with different impedance levels. For this reason, using a dedicated mic cable is essential for achieving the best audio quality. This makes them indispensable in both professional and personal settings, from recording studios to live performances, and even for podcasting or streaming setups.

Who Uses Mic Cables and Where Are They Used?

Mic cables are a vital tool for anyone involved in audio production, whether as a hobby or profession. Musicians and vocalists rely on microphone cables for performances and studio recordings, where clear audio is a priority. Audio engineers and event technicians use these cables in live sound environments, where durability and reliability are critical. For podcasters and broadcasters, mic cables are essential for ensuring consistent audio quality, particularly when using professional-grade microphones.

These cables find applications in diverse environments, ranging from compact home studios to large concert venues. Their versatility makes them suitable for connecting microphones to audio interfaces, mixers, and amplifiers across different setups. For example, in a live performance, a long XLR mic cable might connect a stage microphone to a mixing desk located far away, ensuring seamless sound transmission. Similarly, a shorter cable may be preferred in a studio environment to reduce clutter and maintain signal integrity.

By offering various lengths and connection types, microphone cables provide tailored solutions for both amateurs and professionals. Their ability to support multiple applications, combined with their specialised construction, makes them a cornerstone of any audio setup, ensuring reliability and quality in any setting.
