AES/EBU Cables for Mics

[Modus]

I picked up what I thought were normal XLR male to female cables but I when I got home and looked a little closer I saw that they were AES/EBU 110 ohm cables. I did a search but I couldn't figure out if these are OK to use with condenser mics as a mic cable.
I don't want to blow up my mics!

You will be fine. The AES/EBU standard is is well within tolerance for a mic cable.

 

[Sinistah]

yeah they will work, actually better than regular XLR's

you thought u was gonna blow up if you plugged em in, actually pending ya pre-amp it would make ya vocals clearer or should make it clearer pending on ya ohms capacity...

Every single interconnect in the main chain here -- Digital *and* analog -- are Belden 1800F AES/EBU cable.

Farview should know...

In any case, you're fine. You might not be the other way around though...
