Rodrigo Morales: very good

Wesley Millsapp: The material quality of this product is great and lasted me a long time. I give the sound quality a 8/10. I feel it’s a good product for its price. I use this with a condenser mic and a audio interface. Overall a good product.

David Lozano: Compré este cable por su precio y por la longitud del mismo. La calidad del cable me decepcionó un poco, no se nota muy resistente. Lo recomiendo para uso en interiores.

Hawk eye: After a few years of on-and-off hobby music recording, using either amplifier software or a guitar amp head with a line out to record guitar parts, I decided to try recording with microphones. I recently designed, 3D printed, and built my own speaker cabinets and want to record them.

Again, I'm a on-and-off hobbyist, I'm by no means a professional or even experienced in this field of music tech. But for my means, connecting my Scarlett 2i4 to two instrument mics, these cables are working fantastically with no issues at all.

Due to the combined rust of not playing guitar much and not using my DAW lately, I've yet to record anything that won't make listeners grimace, but listening to my guitar tone through my monitors, I'm liking the tone I'm getting and as far as my ears can tell, these cables aren't negatively affecting my tone in any way.

So while I can't speak for the reliability/clarity of these cables from a professional point of view, as a home studio hobbyist these work fine for me, and their price makes them accessible to folks that may want to try mic recording but don't want to spend a lot on the essentials without compromising quality.

Monte Anderson: These cables work fine for a permanent installation or for occasional use. I use these in a church setting between D.I.s and a snake, and they are never disconnected and hardly ever moved. For this application, they work just fine. I don't know if I would count on them in higher stress situations for very long.

The cable is thinner than what you find on most XLR cables. I didn't say they were thinner gauge than other cables, because it looks and feels to me as though the jacket is actually thinner than most, and that the conductors may possibly be similar gauge. I don't know if that's actually the case, but it's just a guess on my part.

The connectors have a bit more play when plugged in on either end, and they just feel kind of cheap. The biggest issue, to me, is the strain relief. The strain relief appears as though it is made for cables of a standard thickness, while the actual cable is thinner, as mentioned earlier. The fit between the strain relief and the cable is not tight enough, and I wouldn't be surprised to have cables fail because they get pulled out of the connector if used in a standard application. If that happened, I'd probably end up throwing the...

Kamel: ***UPDATE***
This cord has unexpectedly failed after 3 years of very light indoor studio use. The one I compared it to was the Pyle, and it is still working. I don't know if this is because it got used more or not, but considering how light my usage was I did decide to knock a star off - primarily because the other XLR cords I got all still work and they are also inexpensive. Not trying to be too hard on the little guy, I know I can't expect much for $5, but hey when your competition is doing better than you, that means you have room to grow. It was a bit sudden, I actually thought it was my mic or soundboard so I was very pleased when I discovered it was just the XLR cord that had gone out. There was no warning, and it didn't seem to matter the amount of twisting I tried to do to get static or anything out of it. This was with a phantom powered mic tho, so maybe with a passive mic I would have gotten some static or something.
***END***

I got this XLR cord along with a second one that was similarly priced. I didn't know which to get, needed 2, and figured I would take the opportunity to figure out which is better.

The other cord I got was the Pyle PPFMXLR15 15...
