PROEL ESO1000LU15 - Professional Speaker Cable, Esoteric Series, with Neutrik Speakon Connectors (15 Meters)
The PROEL ESO1000LU15 represents excellence in high-power audio transmission, belonging to the acclaimed Esoteric Series from the Italian brand. Designed specifically to meet the most rigorous demands of professional sound engineers and musicians, this 15-meter assembled cable combines precision-engineered internal construction with high-strength external materials.
Unlike standard cables, the ESO1000LU15 uses the HPC620 bulk conductor, made from high-purity Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) . This ensures superior conductivity and prevents long-term oxidation, guaranteeing that the audio signal reaches your speakers with maximum fidelity, without loss of high frequencies or attenuation of bass. Its internal twisted-pair structure is designed to minimize inductance and improve the transient response of the sound system.
Durability is a fundamental pillar of the Esoteric series. The cable features a super-flexible PVC outer jacket with a Shore hardness of 60, giving it a soft-touch feel while remaining extremely resistant to abrasion, foot traffic, and continuous stage use. Furthermore, it comes equipped with genuine Neutrik Speakon connectors, the global industry standard, guaranteeing a secure mechanical and electrical connection, free from unwanted noise or accidental disconnections.
Main features
-
OFC Copper Conductors: Uses high purity copper (Oxygen Free Copper) for crystal clear signal transfer and low electrical resistance.
-
Original Neutrik Connectors: Equipped with Speakon connectors from the NL series (Neutrik), recognized for their reliability and secure "Quick Lock" locking system.
-
Ultra-Flexible Cover: The special PVC coating allows the cable to be wound and unwound easily, preventing the memory effect and annoying tangles.
-
Robust Construction: Designed to withstand the extreme conditions of touring, outdoor stages, and demanding fixed installations.
-
Italian Engineering: Developed by Proel, a leading brand in the professional audio sector, meeting strict quality standards.
Benefits for the professional
For the sound engineer or touring musician, reliability is non-negotiable. The PROEL ESO1000LU15 eliminates the worry of failures in the audio chain. Its low capacitance ensures the amplifier has precise control over the speaker cone's movement, resulting in a more defined sound with greater punch. Furthermore, its flexibility greatly facilitates quick setup and teardown (load-in/load-out), saving valuable time during event production.
Use cases
-
Live sound reinforcement: Main connection between power stages and passive speakers (PA, floor monitors, side-fills) at concerts and festivals.
-
Fixed installations: Theaters, auditoriums or conference rooms where long-lasting, low-maintenance cabling is required.
-
Recording studios: High fidelity connection for passive far-field monitors or guitar amplifiers in isolation rooms.
-
Column and Array Systems: Ideal for its 15-meter length to reach flown or distributed acoustic boxes on large stages.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is this cable shielded?
No, speaker cables like this one don't require braided shielding like microphone cables because they carry high-voltage signals. Their internal braided design naturally rejects electromagnetic interference.
-
Can I use it for active speakers?
No. This cable is for connecting an external amplifier to a passive speaker. Active speakers require separate signal (XLR) cables and power supply.
-
Are the connectors compatible with any Speakon input?
Yes, Neutrik 2-pole connectors are compatible with 2- and 4-pole Speakon chassis inputs (connecting to the standard +1/-1 poles), which is the universal configuration for most passive speakers.
-
What is the cross-sectional area of the cable?
It has a section of 2 x 2.5 mm² (14 AWG), ideal for runs of 15 meters without appreciable power loss.
Project description
15-meter assembled professional speaker cable from Proel's Esoteric series. Constructed with HPC620 model cable, featuring two 2.5 mm² (14 AWG) bare copper (OFC) conductors in a twisted-pair configuration for reduced inductance. It has 3.20 mm flexible PVC insulation and an 8.4 mm diameter ultra-flexible PVC outer jacket (60 Shore) in black, resistant to abrasion and temperatures from -20°C to +70°C. Terminated with genuine Neutrik Speakon 2-pole connectors (NL2FX or equivalent) at both ends to ensure a robust, low-resistance mechanical connection.
