This is more of a reference for me, so no need to comment.
January downtime so have decided to go through my Xlr cable stock with a view to replace repair and add to.

Therefor spent all day on tinternet looking for best possible deal. The results are 100 m Van Damme tour grade xke  cable Red from Stampy tools ( I had never heard of them either) £154 delivered and 20  Neutrik  NC3 xlr 10male  10 female £68 delivered from Bax music. So unit cost of one 10m cable befor labour is £22.20

CPC is cheaper for the cable, and £64.80 for the Neutriks .. delivery will be free

Check Rapid too as I've brought 100M reels of XKE for £108 before at the right time

Yes checked cpc but they didn’t have red in the right diameter only 4mm od on 100 metre so  would have paid carriage on the Neutriks , forgot about rapid to be  honest. Nb Bax delivery was free.



Black would have been cheaper by about £40 that day, and found reel of blue for £80 no vat   but my cable had to be red, I use red for all gigs except corporates as makes identifying our cable at load out  easior and prevents arguments with lampies and vidiots

Ah sorry didn't notice the red bit.. we can't have any colour except black as it looks shit for theater gig. I put a little heatshrink belt on the male end of the XRL's for identification.

I use red cable for the same reason, and I’ve still had people try to walk off with them.

Why do you think I’ve just bought another 100m ?
