PROEL CHL140LU1 - Balanced Audio Cable 6.3 mm TRS Jack to 6.3 mm TRS Jack (1 meter)
Optimize your studio or stage signal chain with the Proel CHL140LU1 , a professional balanced audio cable from Proel's renowned Challenge series . Designed for flawless, interference-free signal transmission, this 1-meter cable is the ideal solution for short interconnections where audio quality cannot be compromised.
The engineering behind the CHL140LU1 focuses on reliability. Unlike generic cables, this model incorporates high-quality components that ensure superior conductivity and resistance to mechanical wear. Its oxygen-free copper (OFC) core guarantees that the sound remains pure, transparent, and true to the original source, preserving both deep bass frequencies and crystal-clear treble without unwanted coloration.
The most striking feature of this cable is its Yongshen connectors (manufactured by the renowned Ningbo Neutrik Electronics). These black metal connectors not only provide a sleek and professional look, but also feature gold-plated contacts to prevent long-term oxidation and ensure a perfect electrical connection every time. Whether setting up a patchbay, connecting studio monitors, or daisy-chaining effects processors, the CHL140LU1 delivers the quiet performance that professionals demand.
Main features
-
High-end Yongshen connectors: Equipped with 6.3mm metal stereo jacks (TRS) manufactured under industrial quality standards, offering robustness and a secure grip.
-
Gold-plated contacts: The connector pins have a gold coating that maximizes signal transfer and eliminates common corrosion problems in humid environments.
-
Balanced construction: Three-conductor (TRS) design that allows for electromagnetic and radio frequency (RFI/EMI) noise cancellation, crucial for maintaining a clean sound background.
-
High-purity OFC copper: The internal conductor uses Oxygen-Free Copper, which reduces electrical resistance and improves audio definition.
-
Flexible and durable coating: Its soft PVC outer cover protects the cable from being stepped on and bent, while maintaining excellent flexibility for easy routing in tight spaces.
Benefits for the user
Using the Proel CHL140LU1 transforms your cable management. As a balanced cable, it provides active protection against electrical hum and external interference, vital in environments with numerous electronic devices. Its 1-meter length is strategic: long enough to connect stacked or closely spaced equipment without creating the clutter and signal loss caused by excessively long, coiled cables. Furthermore, the durable metal connectors ensure this cable will withstand years of constant plugging and unplugging without failing.
Use cases
-
Studio equipment interconnection: Ideal for connecting the output of an audio interface to nearby studio monitors.
-
External (Outboard) processors: Perfect for chaining compressors, equalizers and preamps in a rack.
-
Patchbays: Suitable length for making jumps and connections in balanced patch panels.
-
Stereo or balanced instruments: Connecting synthesizers, drum machines or keyboards with TRS outputs to mixing consoles or interfaces.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cable suitable for connecting an electric guitar to an amplifier?
The connector fits, but it's not the recommended use. Guitars typically use unbalanced mono (TS) cables. This is a stereo/balanced (TRS) cable. While it may work in some cases, it's designed for balanced or stereo line signals.
Is it a stereo or mono cable?
It's a cable with TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) connectors. This means it can function as a stereo cable (carrying two audio channels, left and right, in a single cable) or as a balanced mono cable (carrying a mono signal but with noise cancellation). Its most common use in professional audio is as a balanced mono cable.
What brand are the connectors?
The connectors are from the Yongshen brand, recognized as the manufacturing subsidiary of Neutrik in China, offering a build quality far superior to generic connectors.
