{"product_id":"viablue-nf-s1-xlr-kabel","title":"ViaBlue NF-S1 XLR Cable, Balanced","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe ViaBlue NF-S1 XLR cable is a balanced analogue connection that couples two components with an XLR connector with low interference and stable levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe balanced design largely cancels out interference on its own – ideal for longer runs or setups with many sources of interference nearby. Silver-plated, tinned OFC conductors, the Quattro Silver Shield quadruple shielding and the solid T8 XLR connectors are standard on ViaBlue, not premium cosmetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the NF-S1 XLR?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBalanced wiring pays off wherever the signal has a longer run, or where power supplies, dimmers and Wi-Fi are transmitting nearby. The NF-S1 brings enough shielding for that, and stays quiet even at length thanks to twisted conductors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you'll hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA deeper, calmer background from which fine details emerge more clearly – no fireworks effect, just the feeling that nothing stands in the way anymore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the NF-S1 XLR suitable for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone with balanced inputs and outputs on a pre-\/power amp, DAC or active monitors. Plain talk: if your devices only have Cinch, XLR won't help – then take the Cinch\/RCA version. XLR isn't a sonic magic potion, but the cleaner transmission where the technology allows for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA thoroughly solid balanced cable at a fair price, which consistently brings the NF-S1 virtues to XLR.

This pays off especially with longer cable runs or in electrically noisy environments. The prerequisite is balanced inputs and outputs on both devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat length should I choose?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs short as possible, as long as necessary. Measure the actual distance between the devices and allow a bit of extra for strain relief. Too long barely hurts the sound, but unnecessarily drives up the price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Cobra or Black better?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat's purely aesthetic. The braided sleeve differs only in colour; construction and sound are identical. Choose the colour that matches your devices and your rack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy buy the NF-S1 XLR from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause we know from years of experience when balanced really makes a difference and when Cinch is enough.
