Members Rob_H Posted December 14, 2013 Members Share Posted December 14, 2013 Hi All, Just looking for some input, I have been using Seismic cables without any issues until last night that is....apparently they are fine when I am on the rig but not robust enough once you put an employee behind the wheel.... I am looking at moving to all either Mogami or Canare; any thoughts on which is a better choice? I am leaning towards Canare as it appears (and I could be wrong) that the Mogami brand is more well known and costs more because of it. With either option it will be Neutrik gold ends; appreciate any input here. Thanks, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members agedhorse Posted December 14, 2013 Members Share Posted December 14, 2013 In between racks or inside the racks? In between, any of the pro brands including rapco, Proco, whirlwind, etc in an appropriate quality level is just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members agedhorse Posted December 14, 2013 Members Share Posted December 14, 2013 Inside racks, I make up my own harnesses using belden 8451 and switchcraft or neutrik connectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rob_H Posted December 14, 2013 Author Members Share Posted December 14, 2013 Thanks, Looking for mostly internal and a few in between racks....wonderboy decided the PA+ was not connected properly to the amps last night and buggered some cables so I had to leave the Xmas party I was at and go replace cables...of course, as Murphy would have it, he made this decision right before the band went on for first set so there were no subs for that set...

Gold ends may be a good option depending on what connectors are used in the rack mount equipment you have. Mixing metals (gold and silver color) leaves the potential for corrosion...especially for internal rack wiring that never gets changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
