Studiospares XLR Cable Bundle


The Studiospares XLR Cable Bundle offers you everything you’ll need to create and maintain your own tailored XLR cables.

 

What’s inside:

Studiospares Ultimate Cable Tester


When working in the studio or at a live venue, the signal is everything. There is nothing worse than having an intermittent signal and ruining the perfect take or performance. It has become an industry best practice to always test cables, before and after your big session, and the ultimate cable tester helps you get through all your cables in minutes.

 

Cable testing has never been easier, simply plug both ends into the ultimate cable tester, and you get an instant LED display to show you exactly how your cables are wired, and whether there are any bad connections. This has long been considered essential by all our studio and venue engineers across the country.

 

The all-metal construction makes this hard-wearing, suitable for a roadie tool case or the studio. There are probes also included helping test for continuity and phase of connections other than those built-in. Supplied with a single PP3 battery that when clicked into the bottom of the cable tester, forms a strong and reliable connection.

Europa Ultimate 100m Drum Mic Cable Black


Hardly any microphone cables include both braided screening and plastic carbon screening. They are the ultimate and will be more expensive.

 

Braided screening is the ultimate method of stopping interference breaking through from mobile phones, thyristor lighting and taxis. The additional plastic carbon screen stops crunching and squealing sounds breaking into the microphone’s output when the cable is flexed. Low losses are assured by specifying generous amounts of copper in the strands, which keeps the DC resistance low and using a special dielectric that lowers the self-capacity between the conductors to maintain high frequencies.

 

The outer jacket resists abrasions, remains flexible at lower temperatures and has many colour options. Europa Ultimate combines exceptional performance with good mechanical characteristics. Cotton liner and cotton fillers maintain a round cable shape when flexed. OFC copper is used throughout. Manufactured in accordance with BS9001.

 

**Please note - The black plastic carbon screening must be stripped back carefully to ensure it does not short against either of the copper conductors. **

 

Specification:

  • The capacitance between conductors - 70 pF/m.
  • The capacitance between conductor to earth - 120pF/m.
  • DC Resistance of conductor per metre - 0.08Ω.
  • No of strands and their diameters - 20x 0.12sq.mm.
  • Cross-sectional area 0.22 sq mm.
  • Screening method - Braid+ Carbon Plastic.
