About Worlds Best Cables

WorldsBestCables builds XLR, TRS, RCA, instrument, speaker and digital audio cables to order. Its Pro-Quad cable is a star quad design with four oxygen free copper cores made of 0.08 mm strands, a dense braided shield rated above 98 percent coverage and a tough PVC jacket about 7 mm across. The Canare L-4E6S versions use Canare's four conductor star quad cable with a braided copper shield and a 6 mm jacket. The brand solders its cables with a silver solder blend in a nitrogen assisted process.

Choose length first. Short 15 cm to 61 cm leads suit patching between a mixer, audio interface, wireless receiver or rack gear, while 3 m to 15.2 m runs reach microphones on stage or across a set. Every cable in this range is a balanced XLR lead, so it links microphones, mixers and preamps with standard three pin XLR sockets. The star quad layout helps reject electromagnetic and radio frequency interference on longer runs. Pro-Quad is the thicker option, while L-4E6S is slimmer.

Worlds Best Cables questions

What is a star quad XLR cable?

A star quad cable carries a balanced signal on four conductors instead of two, arranged so interference hits the pairs equally and cancels out. Both the Pro-Quad and Canare L-4E6S cables we stock use this layout to reduce hum and noise pickup.

Which Amphenol connectors are fitted?

WorldsBestCables lists its Pro-Quad XLR leads with Amphenol AX3M male and AXX3F female connectors. These are three pin XLR plugs, so the cables fit standard microphone, mixer, interface and preamp sockets.

Should I pick Pro-Quad or Canare L-4E6S?

Both are balanced star quad cables. Pro-Quad has a heavier 7 mm jacket and a dense braided shield, while Canare L-4E6S is a slimmer 6 mm cable. We stock L-4E6S in short 46 cm and 61 cm patch lengths.
