Patch cable recommendation

I need some balanced (TRS 1/4" plug) cables to run between a sound card and mixer.Â* I bought a cheap snake a long time ago, and despite it not being abused, I have to fiddle with many of the connectors to get a consistent clean connection.Â* The plugs are molded plastic. I'd like to go individual this time instead of a snake, and would probably like serviceable plugs so that I'm not in this position again. 2 meter length ought to do it.Â* Just looking for the lowest price at a quality that will allow me to connect them and forget them. A brand I've had luck with is Livewire Advantage. They use Neutrik ends. I bought a knot of TS cables of that make in 2012 and haven't had to do anything to any of them. I'd call my case "gentle use"; obviously rough use will be different. They're not the highest quality cable possible. For your use case - presumably line level - I doubt that matters much at all. Livewire Advantage seems always priced just above the cost of doing it yourself. It's just easy to order a bag of new ones should they fail. -- Les Cargill |
