Comments about Samson MC18 Microphone Cables (18' - 3 Pack):

Over time these cables wore out. I purchased 9 cables in 2010. Our typical use is for church worship and live concert events. It is now 2013 and only 3 work, while the rest provided headaches for live performances.

This is not a solution for anyone looking to have working sound.

Comments about Samson MC18 Microphone Cables (18' - 3 Pack):

I know to listen when the opening band's guitar player says: "I got my own mic cables." After their set I find out his "Own" cables ruined my new $750.00 snake. Thanks Man!

Comments about Samson MC18 Microphone Cables (18' - 3 Pack):

These cords are a great bargain for the Price.

These are not well fitted for hard and heavy use on the road. But for a home studio, or events, or church (where I use the majority of these) they perform great.

At this price, you will want to check each one out before it is time for your performance or event, but if it performs well in test, it will perform well in performance.

Again these are not XLR connectors so the strain relief is not high end, but for none stressful use, if one goes bad, you have two more.

Best Uses

Comments about Samson MC18 Microphone Cables (18' - 3 Pack):

We had these cables for about a month before they stopped working...I had to re-solder the female ends together, but I'm getting some other cables. They've been used "normally," our singer doesn't swing the mics by the cable or anything like that. Just don't buy them. Go with Mogami or something.

Performance

Comments about Samson MC18 Microphone Cables (18' - 3 Pack):

I purchased a pack of 3 several years ago. Still
tight fitting and good performance. The red band
is the clue that this cable will work each time
out.

What to say?

By Anonymous

from Undisclosed

Comments about Samson MC18 Microphone Cables (18' - 3 Pack):

These cables in my opinion are just as good as the big boys. The same quality and performance as other high-end balanced lines. Not a comparison to Monster Cables but as close as you can get.
