XLR to XLR Audio Cable SSQ XX4, 4 m, balanced microphone/cable connection

SSQ Cable XX4 is a 4-metre balanced XLR-to-XLR audio cable engineered for microphone and professional audio equipment connections. The cable features three-pin male and female XLR connectors and a balanced conductor arrangement to reduce electromagnetic interference and preserve signal integrity over the run. Designed for use in live sound, studio recording, broadcast and PA systems, the XX4 provides a stable connection between microphones, mixers, preamps and other pro audio devices.

Advantages

The balanced construction and three-pin XLR connectors provide improved noise rejection and stable grounding compared with unbalanced cables. The 4 m length offers flexibility for stage and studio placement while keeping cable runs manageable. Durable connector shells and strain relief reduce wear at termination points, and the cable's conductor and shielding design help maintain clear audio with minimal signal loss.

Suitable for

• Connecting microphones to mixers or audio interfaces
• Interlinking stage boxes, preamps and DI units
• Studio recording sessions and voiceover setups
• Broadcast, podcast and PA system connections

Key specifications

• Cable type: balanced XLR-to-XLR audio cable
• Length: 4 metres
• Connectors: three-pin male and female XLR
• Conductor: stranded audio-grade copper (balanced pair with ground)
• Shielding: braided or foil shielding for interference rejection
• Impedance: suitable for low-impedance microphone signals
• Construction: flexible jacket with strain relief at connectors

How to use

Insert the female XLR connector onto the microphone output or the device's microphone input and secure until the latch engages. Connect the male XLR connector to the mixer, preamp or other destination input. Route the cable away from power lines and sources of electromagnetic interference to preserve signal quality. When coiling the cable for storage, use loose loops to avoid kinks and do not sharply bend at the connector ends.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the SSQ XX4 for low-impedance microphone signals and professional line-level routing in controlled studio or stage environments. Avoid running the cable parallel to mains power cables; cross them at right angles if necessary. Inspect connectors periodically for secure contacts and replace the cable if shielding or jacket damage is visible.
