About This Item
Description
The Forte Microphone cable is designed to create the kind of first-listen realization that a spec sheet alone cannot convey — the authenticity of your source in a cable built to survive the road. This listing is the 10 ft (3 m), XLR-to-XLR version.
Choose the right version
This is the 10 ft (3 m) XLR-to-XLR version. Pick the length that matches the distance from your microphone to your preamp or interface.
Why engineers choose the Forte Microphone
Engineers choose the Forte Microphone cable when they need the Evidence Audio sound in a cable that survives touring and repeated coiling. Its IGL-ECS conductors behave like solid-core through their enamel coating while keeping the flexibility and ruggedness of a stranded cable.
Honest note: the Forte Microphone cable is flexible and road-ready, but it is a premium, substantial cable rather than a thin utility lead.
How it compares
The Forte Microphone cable is the flexible, rugged counterpart to the solid-core Lyric HG Microphone cable, aimed at touring and repeated handling.
