Monoprice 104765 35-Feet Premier Series XLR Male to 1/4-Inch TRS Male 16AWG Cable gold

I purchased about a dozen of these from 2016 to 2018. Today in 2020, every other XLR-to-1/4 I bought in that era is still working, while every single Monoprice cable Ive ever purchased has failed, with no exceptions. These just dont last, and I wasted so much money and time buying these because I didnt know better and liked the feel of these. Im almost tempted to do a demo of all my failed cables just in hopes that someone believes me and doesnt waste their time. I know there are overwhelmingly positive reviews but if youre reading this, please take my word for it.

LOVE these cables! Already owned the 3 ft version and needed one 6 ft for my left speaker with my new studio set up. I have these connected to 2 numark npm 100 monitors through my tascam US 2x2 external audio interface. These cancel out any buzz or noise, sound quality is excellent and they are of excellent build quality. And, you cannot beat this price for such a high quality cable. Perfect for my needs!

Bunch of static but wont return it becouse Amazon will take as long as they want to return money back!

Great quality cable, big bang for buck.

gold plated. love it

It is simply impossible to go wrong with these cables - unless maybe you order the wrong length. They are so inexpensive one can buy multiple sets and still pay less than branded cables. Since I found these I dont even waste time considering others. Theres no point. These meet all of the relevant requirements. Its rare these days to find a product of such basic, consistent quality at a fair price.

Very well built, plastic potting to protect the connections inside the 1/4 TRS connector (havent looked inside the XLR) and the cables are heavier and stronger than a typical microphone cable.

Great value and good quality.

This cord is really durable and good quality.

My oldest son is a professional installer of studio hardware and other associated gear, and his company purchases all manner of hardware, directly from Monoprice. The fact that he recommended these cables to me because (and I quote) they make great products at great prices tells only part of the story. The fact is that youd be VERY hard pressed to find better or higher quality studio cables at ANY price. Im using these cables to connect a Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 DI (Digital Interface) to a pair of JBL LSR305 studio monitors in my home studio, which is still under construction but is nearing completion. These cables work flawlessly, theyre DEAD SILENT (meaning they dont pick up ANY noise) and are of EXTREMELY high quality. I havent purchased the studio subwoofer yet (from Monoprice) that I plan on getting, but when I do, Ill also be purchasing more Monoprice XLR cables to complete the connections to the mains. There isnt a whole lot to say about high quality (studio) cables, other than the only thing that REALLY matters; they are totally transparent, which is exactly what high quality cables are all about. If you cant tell theyre there, theyre doing exactly what they were designed to do. And that IS the bottom line. HIGHLY recommended.
