Stagg NMC20R 20m XLR Microphone Cable - Black

Live sound engineers and studio technicians rely on the Stagg NMC20R for clean, uninterrupted signal transfer over long cable runs. Its 20-meter length reaches across stages, rehearsal rooms, and recording booths without adding noise or colouration to the source. The balanced XLR connectors lock securely into microphones, mixers, and DI boxes, while the oxygen-free copper conductors and spiral shielding reject electromagnetic interference from lighting rigs and power lines. Whether you are patching a dynamic vocal mic or routing a condenser microphone to a preamp, this cable keeps the signal path transparent and dependable.

Why choose it

The Stagg NMC20R is built for demanding audio environments. Its balanced configuration minimises hum and buzz, while the robust PVC jacket withstands frequent coiling, stepping, and rolling over. Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion and maintain reliable contact over thousands of mating cycles. The cable’s flexibility makes it easy to dress neatly on stage or in the studio, reducing trip hazards and setup time.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting microphones to mixing consoles or stage boxes
• Linking outboard gear such as compressors and equalisers
• Running long cable lengths in live sound and broadcast
• Studio recording where low noise and transparency are critical

Good to know

This cable is suitable for low-impedance microphone signals and can also carry line-level audio between balanced devices. The XLR connectors feature strain relief to protect the solder joints from bending stress. For best results, avoid running parallel to AC power cables over long distances.
