Professional XLR Interconnect
The Monoprice 118674 is a balanced XLR male-to-female cable built for studio, stage and broadcast use. It carries a low-impedance microphone or line-level signal over 15 feet of 16AWG stranded copper with gold-plated connectors and moulded strain relief. The design targets users who need a reliable, long-run link without the noise pickup common on unbalanced leads.
Balanced Signal Path
A balanced topology uses separate conductors for signal and a braided shield, so interference is rejected rather than modulated into the audio. This eliminates ground-loop hum when connecting mixers, preamps, powered speakers or snake returns. The cable plugs directly into any standard three-pin XLR jack and requires no adapters, tools or external power to operate.
15-Foot Reach With Headroom
At 4.572 metres the cable spans typical stage or rack distances while the heavy-gauge conductors keep resistance low enough for phantom-powered microphones. It will not suit installations needing longer runs, multi-channel snakes or permanent in-wall routing where plenum-rated jackets are required.

Questions about this item
How far can the 15 ft 16AWG cable run before balanced signal loss becomes audible?
Balanced design with separate braided shield reduces EM and RF noise, extending effective range for the 4.572 m length without ground loop issues.
Does the 16AWG stranded copper cable with gold plated connectors stay cool and quiet during all-day stage or studio use?
Passive analog cable generates no heat or noise; gold plated connectors and molded strain relief boots maintain reliable contact under continuous operation.
What equipment must already have XLR ports for this male to female cable to work?
Requires a source with XLR male output and a destination with XLR female input such as microphones, mixers, interfaces or powered speakers.
