Do you have a mic in your collection that has 4 pins? Or maybe one of those hot-point amphenol screw on connectos? Well I just found a website that sells cables with all sorts of weird connectors like that! Kind of a bit pricey, but the site implies that they're only into high quality stuff. Anyway, I've got a cable connector I've been looking for for awhile. I ordered by phone, and the guy I spoke with (Jerry) was REALLY nice. Here's the link: http://www.oaktreeent.com/

at $54...thats a bloody rip off.

even Monster couldnt get away with selling a mic cable for that price unless it was gold plated.

i got (3) 4 pin amphenol connectors with cables affixed on ebay for $10us.

all i had to do was buy 3 XLR connecters (about another $10..i stole mine from broken mic cables i had) and solder them on.


so for $10 i had 3 cables that would have cost me more than $150.00 from that site.

thanks bu no thanks.
