SAXLX-2 - 6 Pack of Black 2 Foot XLR Patch Cables
The SAXLX-2 Black 6-pack delivers professional XLR patch cables for studio racks, live sound systems, and DJ setups where short connections keep signal paths clean and organized. These 2-foot cables handle the critical links between mixers, equalizers, crossovers, amplifiers, and other balanced audio gear.
Each cable features metal 3-pin XLR connectors (male to female) built for reliable connections in demanding environments. The heavy-duty flexible rubber jacket protects against wear while maintaining easy routing in tight rack spaces and cable runs. The female connector attaches to your source output and the male connector attaches to your destination input.
Shielded construction with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors ensures clean signal transmission between components. At 2 feet, these cables provide the ideal length for rack-mounted gear connections without excess cable clutter that can introduce noise or create maintenance headaches.
Perfect for connecting outboard processors in studio control rooms, linking crossovers to amplifiers in PA racks, or patching effects units in live sound systems. The 6-pack quantity handles typical rack configurations where multiple short connections are needed between adjacent units.
These balanced XLR cables work with any equipment featuring standard 3-pin XLR inputs and outputs. The pack includes six identical 2-foot cables, giving you flexibility to wire complete signal chains or keep spares on hand for quick repairs.
Essential for musicians, DJs, mobile entertainers, recording studios, theater production, and schools.
Seismic Audio backs each cable with a full one-year warranty and ships orders fast to keep your studio or live rig connected.

Frequently Asked Questions
What equipment do these XLR patch cables connect?
These cables work with any balanced audio gear featuring standard 3-pin XLR inputs and outputs. Connect mixers to equalizers, crossovers to amplifiers, effects processors to consoles, or any combination of studio and live sound equipment that uses XLR connections.
Why choose 2-foot cables over longer lengths for rack connections?
Short 2-foot cables minimize signal path length and reduce cable clutter in equipment racks. Longer cables create unnecessary loops that can pick up interference and make troubleshooting difficult. These cables provide just enough length to connect adjacent rack units cleanly.
Can I use these cables for microphones?
Yes, these XLR cables work perfectly for microphones, especially in studio situations where you need short runs from mic to preamp or interface. The male-to-female configuration matches standard microphone cable requirements, and the shielded design protects against interference.
How many cables do I need for a typical studio rack setup?
Most home and project studios need 4-6 short XLR cables to connect outboard gear like compressors, equalizers, and audio interfaces. This 6-pack covers typical configurations with one spare cable for future expansion or emergency replacement.
Can these cables be used for DMX lighting applications?
While these XLR cables will physically connect to DMX lighting equipment, there are technical considerations. Audio XLR cables typically have 75-ohm impedance while DMX512 protocol calls for 120-ohm impedance. This impedance mismatch can cause signal reflections and data errors in longer DMX runs or complex lighting networks. For short DMX connections in smaller setups, these cables may function adequately, but dedicated DMX cables with proper 120-ohm impedance provide more reliable lighting control, especially in professional installations where consistent data transmission is critical.
