Product Information

Full details

The Cables Direct 2XLR-SV115 is a high-performance 15-meter XLR cable designed for sound engineers, musicians, and audio technicians who require reliable signal transmission for professional equipment. Its primary benefit is the combination of high-conductivity gold-plated pins and 80% shielding coverage, which together ensure superior sound clarity and minimal interference. One caveat to consider is that at 15 meters, users must manage the cable length carefully to avoid tangles or potential strain on connector points in busy studio or stage environments.

FAQs

Is this cable suitable for phantom power?

Yes, the 2XLR-SV115 is fully compatible with professional microphones that require 48V phantom power.

Can this cable be used with an electric guitar?

No, this is a balanced XLR cable. Electric guitars typically use unbalanced 1/4-inch TS instrument cables.

Does the 15-meter length cause signal degradation?

The cable is engineered with high-conductivity copper and effective shielding to maintain signal integrity over 15 meters, which is standard for professional audio use.

Are the connectors field-repairable?

The connectors are high-quality, but they are molded to provide maximum durability. For the best performance, we recommend replacing the cable if damage occurs.

What does the 80% shielding mean?

It means the internal copper wiring is wrapped in a protective mesh that covers 80% of the internal area, blocking most external radio frequency interference.

Troubleshooting

Intermittent audio signal

Check that the connector is fully seated and the locking pin is engaged. Inspect the cable for sharp bends or internal damage.

Audible hum or buzz

Ensure the cable is not running parallel to power cables for long distances. If the issue persists, test the cable on a different channel.

Connector won't fit

Verify that the equipment uses a standard 3-pin XLR interface. Ensure the alignment pins on the male connector are not bent.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent signal integrity due to gold-plated pins
  • Effective noise reduction with 80% shielding
  • Durable metal connector housing
  • Generous 15-meter reach for large venues

Cons

  • Long length requires diligent cable management
  • Heavier than budget-grade cables
  • Not intended for permanent outdoor installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your 2XLR-SV115 cable, follow these professional standards:

  1. Setup: Before connecting, inspect both the male and female ends for any debris. Insert the XLR connector until you hear the locking mechanism click into place to ensure a secure physical connection.
  2. Compatibility: This cable is compatible with all standard 3-pin XLR audio equipment, including dynamic and condenser microphones, active subwoofers, and XLR-equipped interfaces.
  3. Cable Care: Use the "over-under" coiling method to store your cable. This prevents the internal copper from twisting and kinking over time.
  4. Storage: Keep the cable in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and avoid stepping on the connectors to maintain their structural integrity.
