PROEL STAGE330LU5 - Professional Balanced Microphone Cable XLR Female to Stereo Jack (5 meters)
The Proel STAGE330LU5 represents the perfect fusion of reliability, durability, and purity in audio transmission. Part of Proel's acclaimed "Stage" series, this pre-assembled cable has been designed to meet the demands of musicians, sound engineers, and recording studios that require a flawless connection without compromising on budget.
This 5-meter cable is specifically configured for balanced connections, with a 3-pin female XLR connector on one end and a 6.3 mm stereo jack (TRS) connector on the other. It's the ideal solution for interconnecting microphones with balanced line inputs, rack equipment, audio interfaces, or active monitors that require this type of lossless signal conversion.
At the heart of this product is Proel's renowned HPC225 cable. Manufactured with Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) , it guarantees superior conductivity and faithful frequency transmission to the original source. Its highly flexible PVC jacket ensures the cable behaves smoothly on stage, preventing stiffness and allowing for easy and tidy coiling after each use.
Main features
-
Real Balanced Transmission: Designed with TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) and 3-pole XLR connectors to effectively cancel noise and electromagnetic interference (EMI) over long distances.
-
Robust Metal Connectors: Equipped with PROEL series connectors with impact-resistant metal housings, designed to withstand the constant abuse of touring and daily studio use.
-
High Quality HPC225 Cable: Uses low capacitance OFC copper conductors, preserving the brightness and clarity of the audio signal, especially at high frequencies.
-
Superior Flexibility: The 6.5mm Superflex PVC jacket protects the internal conductors while keeping the cable soft to the touch and free from "memory effect", preventing annoying tangles.
-
Effective Shielding: It features a high-density red copper spiral shield that blocks parasitic noise and ground hum.
Product benefits
Choosing the Proel STAGE330LU5 means investing in peace of mind. For the sound engineer, this cable eliminates the headaches associated with noisy cables or connectors that fail mid-performance. Its balanced construction ensures an inaudible noise floor , allowing your recordings or live mixes to sound clean and professional.
Furthermore, its durability extends the life of your investment. Unlike generic cables that break internally after only a few uses, Proel's Stage Series is built to withstand pulling, stepping, and the usual wear and tear of setup and teardown. It's a workhorse that delivers consistent performance night after night.
Use cases
-
Recording Studios: Connecting external preamps with XLR output to audio interfaces with balanced Jack line inputs.
-
Live Stages: Interconnection of effects processors, compressors or equalizers in PA racks.
-
Home Studio: Connecting dynamic microphones to instrument inputs or compact mixing consoles that use combo or jack inputs.
-
Monitoring Systems: Signal sending from mixing consoles to studio monitors or active speakers that have a balanced Jack input.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is this cable suitable for connecting an electric guitar?
It's not ideal. Although the jack connector fits, this is a balanced (stereo) cable designed for microphones and line-level signals. Guitars typically use unbalanced (mono) instrument cables.
-
Is it compatible with Phantom power (+48V)?
Yes, being a balanced cable with properly wired XLR and TRS connectors, it allows the passage of Phantom power if the equipment it is connected to supplies it through the Jack (although the standard is XLR to XLR for Phantom).
-
What does OFC mean?
It stands for "Oxygen Free Copper." It's a refining process that removes impurities, improving electrical conductivity and resistance to oxidation, resulting in better sound.
