Mogami Xlr
High End Mic XLR Cables vs. Regular XLR ones?
I'm in this debate about whether a high end XLR cable such as Mogami Gold Series$65, Monster Cables$30-$60, or Blue Cables$30-$60 etc.. are any different than regular old Musicians gear $15 XLR Cables and of the like.
If so Please tell me why. And Which XLR High End cable do you recommend.
Thanks keep in mind durability issues, sound quality, looks, feel, etc they use on each XLR cable to create the varies in prices.
Equipment:
My Mic is a Sennheiser e865
My amp is a Fishman Solo Amp.
Lucas - Don't bother with the high end XLR cables. I always look for cables that have good quality connectors from Switchcraft or Neutrik. I have been using Conquest Sound cables for years and they are very durable.
There is no sound difference despite what anyone says.
