High End Sommer SPIRIT XXL HiFi Instrument Interconnect Cable. Guitar Bass RCA

Our enduring test champion...

is the SC-SPIRIT XXL. This high end guitar cable is one of the most successful products of the past years and enjoys cult status with guitarists and bassists alike. Because of the excellent price-performance ratio, German and international trade press elected the SC-SPIRIT XXL test champion several times in a row.

The cable is robust and yet flexible, while its smoke-coloured jacket gives it a high recall value.

The shielding is ideal: The braiding is 95 % opaque and provides optical protection of 100 %, for even more safety.

A special lacquering makes the complex foamed polyethylene insulation very endurable and helps protect the excellent transmission properties for years to come.

The wire diameter of 0.75 mm² limits the loss typical for long distance guitar cables. There is hardly a guitar cable at a length of 10 m that sounds as good as the SC-SPIRIT XXL.

Our customers consider the sound of the SC-SPIRIT XXL to be crystal-clear, clean and very neutral. It reproduces the impulsiveness of bass attacks exquisitely.

Caution: The black carbon shield between the braided shielding and the insulation is highly conductive. It must be removed before soldering to avoid short circuiting!

THE ADVANTAGES:

• Enormously powerful and clear sound image for bass, guitar and keyboard
• Double shielding due to the combination of copper braided shield and conductive carbon shielding
• Transmission free of losses due to low capacity and large wire diameter
• Very flexible and easy to wind due to the use of fine individual stranding
• Durability and robustness due to a special high quality PVC-mixture for the jacket

• High quality guitar and bass cable for studio and stage
