I have good soldering skills, I've been fixing my own, and friend's, cables for years.

Now, I need a whole set of new balanced mic cables. So I just want to get a big rol of cable and put on the plugs myself.

I've never purchased an entire roll before, I'm sure some of you have though.

What brand of cable and which supliers would you recommend here in Europe, or even better the Netherlands.

Naturaly I want good quality cable, and I'll pay what I have to, but preferably not more than I have to.

Thanks!

Not sure if you can get it there but Canare microphone cable is the best. Blows away Mogami. The mogami quad cable (and all their cable) just has a spiral shield which makes the cable really easy to work with soldering wise and cheap to manufacture but god awful to deal with in the long run, as in spaghetti junction. Very difficult stuff to roll up and it tangles like a joke. On the other hand the Canare quad cable has a braided shield which is more complicated to manufacture and hard to upbraid to solder but the cable is more durable and flexible. It's beautiful to work with at the studio, rolls up nicely.

Canare Star Quad is where it's at.
