This is a Gold Van Damme Ultra-Pure Oxygen Free Copper Silver Plated Cable, Neutrik Balanced 1/4 6.35mm TRS Jack Plugs. NP3X-B Straight Jack Plugs. This is for a single lead.

Neutrik/Van Damme are very much super high-end quality. We are makers of high-quality audio leads. It is so easy to say a lead is high quality. We have been making leads for many years and our customer feedback says everything about what we put together to make a lead. From the combinations of Neutrik and Van Damme we knew we were on a winner from the very start when we started making leads with these brands. It is very much every bit a super high-end quality lead, good sound quality, with outstanding customer reviews. Neutrik connectors are very robust and are precision CNC made using single pieces of brass and then plated, fewer parts mean they are stronger, more robust and better connected than their rivals.

This lead is a balanced configuration made for balanced audio equipment. Both the input and the output equipment must be balanced. Balanced audio means you will have a higher quality sound due to lower capacitance and a noise level much lower due to noise rejection circuitry which works in conjunction with the twisted pair of ultra-pure oxygen free copper conductors inside the screened cable.

This sales is for a single cable with a TRS Jack plug on each end of the cable.

This lead can also be used for stereo signal from a stereo source to a stereo input.

We have over 30 years’ experience in the industry. We make the lead with great care and attention in our workshop using high end soldering equipment and 4 percent silver lead free solder.

Connections are made between the connectors on: (these are standard connections)

Tip Jack (Hot) - Tip Jack (Hot)
Ring Jack (Cold) - Ring Jack (Cold)
Sleeve Jack (Screen) - Sleeve Jack (Screen)

Cable Length Important

PLEASE MEASURE UP CAREFULLY TO AVOID ERRORS

Leads 1m or less (patch leads) will be measured visible cable from the rear black boot of the connector. We add 100mm of cable to compensate for the connectors.

Leads over 1m will be measured cut length of cable. The connectors use up 100mm of cable.

Typical applications for this lead:

For mic/line level use only, on balanced audio equipment.

If you are looking for a lead for amplifier low impedance output to passive speaker, we will have this type of lead in our ebay store.

Note:

If you have a piece of audio equipment that is unbalanced then you need an unbalanced lead. Unbalanced leads are guitar, instrument, patch leads which we also sell. If you have one piece of audio equipment that is balanced and one unbalanced regardless if it is input or output then you will need to use an unbalanced lead.

Please ensure that both your input and output is balanced before buying this lead. Please consult your user manual for both of your input and output audio equipment if you are unsure.

Application:

Mixer to amplifier inputs
Patching mixers to outboard equipment
Mixer to audio interface
Link lead between power amplifiers and active speakers
Patching in racks between FX units, EQ media output devices.
Can be used for any mic/line level use
Mixer output to active speaker input (note an active speaker is a speaker with an amplifier built into it)

We have also supplied this lead to guitarist where there is a dual output on the guitar, dual pickups.
