Seismic Audio SACB-12x4x100 12-Channel XLR Low Profile Circuit Board Snake Cable, 100-Feet

The cable quality is good, it is flexible and sturdy. The connectors on the cable are generic, not Neutrik quality but better than Chinese Switchcraft. Nicely numbered. I took the box end apart to see how I might drill holes in it to screw it down. The 8 screws did not turn easily and as a result the heads got chewed up a little bit. Not really a big deal, but indicative of the corners cut on a "value" item. The connections from the cable to the connectors is all done on a circuit board, and all the cable shields are common. Changing out a bad jack could be a bit of work, because two screws from each connector have to come out, and you need to be able to find the same or very similar replacement connector. I think this would be perfect in the small studio, or a sheltered environment like I bought it for - board member microphones for monthly meetings. But if you are going to be on tour, beating this up every day, spend a bit more. Buy brand name connectors, and opt for wiring terminated directly to individually replaceable jacks. Don't get me wrong, I like this, and I think you will too, stick with Whirlwind, ProCo, or the other brands well established with big touring gigs.UPDATE: 02 22 2024. Due to a change in the installation, I had to unsolder all the XLR's to pass the cable through a small hole in a cabinet. When soldering on XLR male connectors, I push them onto the edge of a cardboard box to hold them in position. Been doing using that trick for years. I discovered that the plastic connector piece that holds the contact will soften with the heat of the soldering iron. I had to reheat a few pins to realign them. So if you need to remove and replace an end, plug the connector into an XLR female to hold things in position. The snake is working well for us and people are pleased the cables are finally organized.

Te ahorra utilizar mucho cables 👌🏻

El snake lo usamos para una iglesia pequeña, no genera ningún tipo de ruido y nos quedo muy bien, esta en interior y no se mueve así que esperamos que dure mucho.

Second one from them now and both have exceeded my expectations (both still in use). The mixer ends could be better protected and wrapped with thicker insulation to prolong their life, but everything is still working on mine after a year of use

I couldn’t justify spending $600 on a snake. We’ve been doing a lot of outdoor video recording in this COVID environment. But I don’t anticipate using it a lot for years on end. So when I found this affordable snake I was excited. We’ve used it on probably five shoots so far and it has preformed just fine. The build doesn’t look particularly beefy so we treat it with care and hope to get enough life out of it to get us through the pandemic. We’re very happy to have this many inputs at this price point. After having this for over a year an update is in order. I’m leaving the high rating because I still think it’s a goof value and there is real customer service. But I thought that I should include a warning that the clip releases on the female XLRs are fragil and if you push too hard on them in the heat of battle you may find it difficult or impossible to free you audio cable. This is something to be aware of.
