Sommer Cable Square 4-Core MKII Highflex

135

Professional Microphone CableThe sound engineer sets the tone, but so does this cable. This is a top quality, high performance microphone cable.

Two wires are combined for sound optimisation, improving the cable's capacitive qualities. In studios, the cable is used especially for phantom power or noise cancelling (for noise reduction, the connectors should be crossed over, i.e. opposite wires RED/WHITE and BLUE/YELLOW are combined).

A dense copper spiral shield together with an additional metallized fleece foil guarantee outstanding shielding. Thanks to its intricate construction, this cable is often found in demanding hi-fi studios, where it is extremely popular for its homogenous and leaner sound pattern.

If you are not willing to make a compromise in sound and electronics, this is the cable for you.

Twisted, but not stirred
CyberDNIWE 09.10.2021
Thick rubber on the outside, followed by wrapped layer of shielding. After which there is ANOTHER protective layer and two pairs of wires. They are not as well twisted as the picture suggests, but they are indeed twisted around each other (take four wires and twist them, you'll get the idea).
Check the website of maufacturer in case you're trying to make a balanced twisted pair out of it like I did.

Unfortunately, there were no differences compared to my previous no-name cable that came with my Samson Q2U (which I assume to be dirt cheap). But the phone test, when you put speedtest on your phone and move it closer to a mic, proved that I have to pretty much jam it into the new cable for it to start to buzz, whereas with my old one it started humming when my phone was under the table in my pocket.
Not the thing I was trying to fix, but hey, thats one problem down :)

Wonderful cable
Beggi 21.07.2020
This cable is very nice to work with, is very flexible, feels nice and is very good for preventing RF noise. Just make sure to combine the opposite wires as noted on the Sommer website for optimal performance for balanced signals (RED+WHITE & BLUE+YELLOW)

Purchased out of curiosity

This cable has an incredible bandwidth! Over a long distance it does not lose a millivolt and keeps the spectrum of the entire Audio frequency range unchanged. Excellent mechanical features, (I used the Neutrik ...) Unsurpassed combination ...

Good for most MI users
Jason7773 04.05.2016
This is a cost effective cable that is similar in concept to starquad cable and a worthwhile upgrade from standard two core. However the following limitations should be noted:

The screen is not as tightly braided as some other brands and the coverage is not particularly good.

There is no cotton filler to reduce triboelectric handling noise caused by movement of insulation material over each other as the cable flexes.
