PROEL CHL100LU5 - Professional Instrument Cable Jack to Jack 5m Challenge Series
The Proel CHL100LU5 is a professional instrument cable belonging to Proel's acclaimed Challenge Series , recognized worldwide for its unbeatable balance of reliability, durability, and audio transmission quality. Meticulously designed for discerning musicians, this 5-meter cable is not just an accessory, but a fundamental component in your signal chain, ensuring that your instrument's tone reaches your amplifier or interface without coloration or loss.
Made with premium materials and subjected to rigorous quality controls, the CHL100LU5 stands out for its robust construction. The cable core uses high-purity Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) , ensuring optimal electrical conductivity and crystal-clear frequency transmission, from the brightest highs to the deepest lows. Its "Noiseless" design incorporates effective shielding that blocks electromagnetic interference and handling noise, allowing you to play with complete clarity even on electrically charged stages.
A key differentiating factor of this model is its connectors. Proel has integrated Yongsheng connectors (manufactured by Ningbo Neutrik Electronics), which offer superior mechanical robustness. With a black metal housing and gold-plated tips , these connectors not only provide a sleek and professional aesthetic, but also ensure a corrosion-free connection and perfect signal transfer for years of intensive use.
Main features
-
High-end Yongsheng connectors: Equipped with 6.3 mm (1/4") jacks manufactured by Neutrik's subsidiary, guaranteeing industry quality standards.
-
Gold-plated contacts: The gold tips prevent oxidation and maximize conductivity for consistently pure sound.
-
OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) Conductor: The use of deoxygenated copper minimizes electrical resistance and improves frequency response.
-
Superior shielding: It features a spiral copper mesh and a semiconducting layer to eliminate background noise and the microphonic effect when moving the cable.
-
Flexible PVC cover: Its outer coating is soft to the touch and highly flexible, preventing annoying tangles and making it easy to collect after each session.
Benefits for the musician
Choosing the Proel CHL100LU5 brings immediate peace of mind. For live musicians, the robust metal connectors mean the cable will withstand accidental tugs and the wear and tear of daily setup and teardown. For studio musicians, the purity of the OFC copper and effective shielding ensure clean recordings, free from unwanted hum that can ruin a perfect take. Furthermore, its 5-meter length provides the necessary freedom of movement on medium and large stages without sacrificing signal integrity, a common issue with longer, lower-quality cables.
Use cases
-
Electric Guitar and Bass: Ideal for connecting the instrument directly to the amplifier or pedalboard, preserving the natural tone of the pickups.
-
Keyboards and Synthesizers: Perfect for mono keyboard outputs, ensuring faithful transmission of the entire dynamic range.
-
Recording Studios: Use in instrument connections to audio interfaces or injection boxes (DI Box) where background silence is critical.
-
Pedalboards: Excellent as the main cable from the guitar to the effects chain input.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is this cable suitable for an electro-acoustic guitar?
Yes, it is fully compatible with electro-acoustic guitars, as well as any instrument that uses a 6.3 mm jack output.
-
Can the connectors be opened for repairs?
Yes, Yongsheng connectors feature a threaded metal housing that allows access to the solder joints should you need to perform any future maintenance.
-
Is it a stereo or mono cable?
It is a mono cable (TS - Tip/Sleeve), designed specifically for instruments such as guitars and basses. It is not suitable for balanced stereo connections.
-
Is the cable rigid or flexible?
Thanks to its special PVC coating, the cable is very flexible and manageable, lying flat on the floor without creating rigid loops that could cause tripping.
