Frequently Asked Questions

Is this cable compatible with 4-pole (NL4) speaker connectors?
Yes. The NL2 male connector on this cable is designed to fit perfectly into an NL4 female connector (very common on speakers and amplifiers). When plugged in, it will connect to the +1 and -1 pins of the NL4 connector, which are used for a standard single-channel connection.

What speaker power can this cable safely handle?
A cable with 1.5 mm² conductors like this one is suitable for safely handling most professional PA speaker power outputs in lengths of 20 meters, making it an excellent choice for power outputs up to 700-800 watts on an 8 ohm load.

Are the connectors plastic or metal?
The connectors on this cable feature a robust metal casing that gives them superior durability compared to plastic connectors, better resisting impacts and intensive use.

Can I use this cable to connect active speakers?
No. This cable is specifically designed to carry an amplified audio signal from a power amplifier to a passive speaker. Active (self-powered) speakers require a signal cable (such as XLR or jack) and a power cable, not a speaker cable.
