Advance Paris L-XLR 1.5 XLR Cable, 1.5 m

The Advance Paris L-XLR 1.5 is a balanced stereo XLR cable with 50-ohm impedance and a pure OCC copper conductor, terminated with solid metal XLR connectors – 1.5 metres in length for devices that are a bit further apart.

Why the L-XLR 1.5?

Because a balanced XLR connection suppresses interference through common-mode rejection far more effectively than an unbalanced RCA connection – an advantage that pays off especially over the slightly longer run. The L-XLR 1.5 puts this advantage to use with cleanly made metal connectors.

Who is the L-XLR 1.5 for?

For devices with XLR inputs and outputs that aren't standing directly next to each other – for example a preamp and power amp in separate racks. For the short connection, the L-XLR 0.5 is enough.

Our verdict

A cleanly made XLR cable for the slightly larger distance – exactly where balanced transmission shows its strength.

Frequently asked questions

Does XLR pay off more at 1.5 metres than with short cables?

Yes, the noise-rejection advantage of balanced XLR becomes more relevant as cable length increases, since longer runs offer more surface for interference. At 1.5 metres, this already pays off noticeably.

Can I mix XLR and RCA connections?

No, XLR and RCA connections aren't compatible and each needs the matching cable type. So first check which connections your devices actually offer.
