While shopping for a Blue mic cable, the Guitar Center tech recommended the Planet Waves 25' microphone cable instead. As it was a great deal cheaper, I decided to give it a go. Previously, I went through many mic cables in my studio--none were rugged enough to stand up to constant use. I'm been very happy with the Planet Waves cable though. So far, it has proved itself durable and has become my favorite cable. Planet Waves quality is apparent in their lifetime guarantee. If you do have a problem, your cable will be replaced for free. In addition, the cable has sturdy end jacks that are less likely to fray or split. Having a good mic cable is an invaluable investment for any studio, and you can't go wrong with this one.

I own a 25' Planet Waves Microphone Cable (Item #PW-M-25), and will use no other brand of cable. These cables are durable, provide a great connection to your equipment, and produce no noise. The gold-plated connections also guard against the corrosion that other metals are prone to, and the double-insulated / dounble-shielded cables stop hum and triboelectric noise dead in its tracks! This microphone / XLR cable also provides reliable phantom power to my gear, and I use it as an instrument output from my preamp to the sound system. I own and use 15 Planet Waves cables of various types for performing and recording, and they deliver an awesome signal! Planet Waves guarantees all of its cables for life, and they're built to last a lifetime! These cables are well-worth the investment!
