Benchmark StarQuad XLR Cable - 0.9m (3ft)

Tough, Reliable, and Transparent

These same cables withstand daily use at all of our Audio Precision test stations. Here the cables continue to reliably deliver precision measurements after experiencing many thousands of insertion and removal cycles. Every converter, preamplifier, and amplifier that we build gets tested, and every test requires the insertion and removal of cables at the test stations. Our own daily use of cables at our test stations has helped us to determine which cables and connectors are the most reliable. We have found that Canare StarQuad L-4E6S cable and Neutrik premium connectors are a winning combination. Together they provide the most reliable high-performance cables.
