PROEL STAGE275LU5 - Balanced Microphone Cable XLR Male to Female (5 Meters)
The Proel STAGE275LU5 is a professional microphone cable designed to deliver flawless signal transmission in demanding environments, from live stages to recording studios. Part of the renowned Stage series from the Italian brand, this 5-meter assembled cable combines mechanical durability with high-fidelity audio, ensuring that the voice or instrument reaches the mixing console without coloration or interference.
At the heart of this product is Proel's acclaimed HPC210 cable . This low-impedance conductor is made from Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) , an industry standard for ensuring maximum conductivity and long-lasting oxidation resistance. Unlike generic cables, the HPC210 features an optimized internal structure to cancel electrostatic and electromagnetic noise, resulting in a completely silent background sound, ideal for critical recordings and high-gain amplification systems.
The ends are terminated with professional-grade aerial connectors from the brand itself: a male XLR (XLR3MV) and a female XLR (XLR3FV) with 3 poles. These connectors are distinguished by their robust housing and an effective strain relief system that protects the solder points against accidental pulls, a common problem in daily use. The super-flexible PVC outer jacket allows the cable to be wound and unwound easily, preventing the "memory effect" and keeping it flat on stage to avoid tripping hazards.
Main features
-
High fidelity transmission: Thanks to its 24 AWG OFC copper conductors, the cable preserves the full frequency range of the audio source.
-
Superior shielding: Incorporates a copper spiral screen with over 90% coverage, effectively blocking radio frequency interference (RFI) and electrical hum.
-
Original Proel connectors: Equipped with XLR3FV and XLR3MV models, designed to withstand constant connection and disconnection cycles.
-
Flexibility and resistance: The 6.5 mm PVC cover offers a soft texture to the touch and great resistance to abrasion and foot traffic.
-
Versatile length: Its 5 meters provide the perfect balance between reach and cable management, suitable for most standard configurations.
Product benefits
Choosing the Proel STAGE275LU5 means investing in peace of mind. For the sound engineer or musician, the greatest benefit is reliability : knowing that the cable won't fail mid-performance. The quality of the materials ensures low capacitance, resulting in crystal-clear highs and fast transient response, vital for capturing the dynamics of a voice or drums. Furthermore, its robust construction reduces the need for frequent replacements, offering an excellent quality-to-lifespan ratio.
Use cases
-
Live sound reinforcement: Connecting dynamic or condenser vocal microphones to stage boxes or mixing consoles.
-
Recording studios: Clean signal paths for recording vocals, guitar amplifiers, or acoustic instruments.
-
Rehearsal rooms: Resistance to intensive use and constant movement typical of practice sessions.
-
Active equipment connection: Ideal for sending a balanced signal from an interface or mixing console to studio monitors or self-powered PA speakers.
-
Podcasting and Broadcast: Ensures a voice free of unwanted noise in voiceover setups.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cable suitable for microphones that require phantom power (48V)?
Yes, being a balanced cable with 3-pole XLR connectors and high-quality conductors, it is fully compatible and safe to transmit 48V phantom power to condenser microphones.
Is the cable noisy when you move it?
No, the HPC210 cable used in this model is specifically designed with filler materials and a tight construction to minimize microphone noise (mechanical noise) when handling it.
Are the connectors compatible with other brands like Neutrik or Switchcraft?
Yes, Proel XLR connectors follow the industry standard for dimensions and design, so they will fit perfectly into any XLR-compatible professional audio equipment of any brand.
