Main features
-
High-quality connectors: Equipped with two 3-pin male XLR connectors and two male RCA (Cinch) connectors from the prestigious brand REAN by NEUTRIK . These metal connectors are known for their robustness and durability, allowing a high number of connection and disconnection cycles without loss of quality.
-
Gold-plated contacts: The contacts of the RCA connectors are gold-plated, ensuring excellent conductivity and preventing corrosion, maintaining a perfect connection over time.
-
Superior cable construction: The cable has a conductor cross-section of 0.22 mm² (AWG 24), composed of 28 copper strands, each 0.10 mm in diameter. This configuration, along with a low resistance of 80 Ohm/km and a capacitance of 80 pF/m, ensures optimal signal transmission with minimal losses.
-
Effective shielding: The spiral shielding provides excellent coverage against noise, making this cable ideal for environments with multiple electronic devices.
-
Practical design: The twin cable format and color coding simplify installation and organization, preventing tangles and confusion between audio channels. Its flexible yet durable PVC jacket protects the cable's interior and makes it easy to handle.
Benefits for the user
The Cordial ECLCFU15MC is designed for audiophiles, musicians, DJs, and sound engineers seeking a reliable, high-performance solution. Its key advantage is the ability to connect professional audio sources with XLR outputs, such as mixing consoles, audio interfaces, or preamps, to consumer or Hi-Fi equipment with RCA inputs, such as amplifiers, stereo receivers, or DJ systems, without compromising sound quality. The robust construction and premium components ensure a long lifespan, even under heavy use on tours or at live events.
Use cases
This cable is extremely versatile and is the perfect choice for multiple scenarios:
- Connect the output of a DJ mixer to a Hi-Fi amplifier.
- Send the signal from a synthesizer or keyboard to an audio interface with RCA inputs.
- Connect professional turntables or CDJ players to a mixer.
- Use it in home or professional studios to connect active studio monitors that have RCA inputs.
- Integrate professional audio equipment into home sound systems or audiovisual installations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cable balanced or unbalanced?
This cable is designed to create an unbalanced connection. It takes a signal from an XLR source (which may be balanced) and transmits it to an RCA input, which by definition is unbalanced.
Can I use this cable to connect a microphone directly to an RCA input?
It's technically possible, but not ideal. Microphones typically require a preamp to boost their signal to line level. Connecting a microphone directly to a line-level RCA input will result in very low volume and potential noise. This cable is better suited for line-level signals.
What does REAN by NEUTRIK mean?
REAN is a brand owned by NEUTRIK AG. It offers connectors designed and engineered by NEUTRIK, guaranteeing high quality and reliability at a competitive price.
