At RS we stock various audio cable types including:</p><li>Multicore microphone and instrument cable</li><li>Single core microphone cable</li><li>Speaker cable</li><li>Twisted and multipair installation cable</li><h3>Screened and Unscreened Audio Cables</h3><p>Audio cables are available either screened or unscreened, and the type of application and its environment can determine which one is most appropriate for your needs.</p><p>Screened audio cables, also known as shielded cables, are better suited for environments where there is a risk of electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio-frequency interference (RFI), which can negatively affect signal transmission. Shielding is a conductive layer that protects the core wires from interference caused by nearby electrical devices to ensure the highest quality audio. Different types of shielding include: braided, spiral, and foil.</p><p>If you require a low cost audio cable for less technical applications, an unscreened cable may be more suitable. Also called unshielded cables, they tend to be more flexible and lightweight.</p>

Microphone Cable | RS

<p>Microphone cables are a type of durable audio cable that commonly feature a single audio cable inside an outer casing. Microphone cables are available in a range of styles including single core and multicore. Microphone cables are commonly used to carry individual audio signals, for example from a microphone to an output. Microphone cables are ideal for attaching an XLR connector or jack, allowing them to be plugged into an amplifier or PA system to amplify vocals.</p><h2>Where are microphone cables used?</h2><p>Assembled microphone cables are found in both portable applications, where they are stored loose or on a cable drum (a spool used to carry different types of electrical wires) or are permanently installed. Microphone cables often feature a standard jack or XLR connector, allowing them to effortlessly connect to amplifiers and sound systems. Microphone cables are highly versatile and can be used in a wide range of areas including home and studio for recording, as well as venues in a live setting.</p><h2>Construction of a microphone cable</h2><ul><li><strong>Core conductor:</strong> The vast majority of microphone cables have a pair of twisted copper wires, suitable for balancing the audio.</li><li><strong>Core insulation:</strong> Core insulation is used to isolate the single core and the outer screen. One method uses an extruded plastic sheath around the individual core, which reduces background noise.</li><li><strong>Core screening:</strong> The cable inside the core is individually screened to reduce crosstalk between cables and reduce any unwanted noise or hum.</li></ul>

Speaker Cable | RS

<p>Speaker Cables are a type of audio cable commonly used to connect receivers or power amplifiers to speakers. Alternatively, speaker cables are also used for the internal wiring of the speakers themselves.</p><h2>Where are speaker cables used?</h2><p>Speaker cables are highly versatile audio cables that are suitable for use in a variety of audible applications. Speaker cables can be installed in a wide range of settings such as; home cinema systems, recording studios, live music events, theatre and much more.</p><h2>What are speaker cables made from?</h2><p>Speaker cables are usually constructed using copper material with PVC insulation. The performance of a speaker cable depends on the quality of this material, therefore high-conductivity copper will have better performance to that of oxygen-free copper cable. Another material available is silver-plated copper.</p><h2>Does the cable resistance affect the performance of Speaker Cable?</h2><p>In general, if a speaker cable has a higher cable resistance it will lower the power level getting to the speaker, resulting in poor speaker performance due to damping. Damping factor is a simple mathematical equation which equals the load (i.e. speaker) impedance divided by the output impedance of the amplifier (i.e. the impedance across the output terminals). It's one measure of the ability of an amplifier to control speaker motion.</p><h2>Types of speaker cables</h2><p>There are a wide range of speaker cables available, each suited to various applications. Speaker cables can include a various number of cores in a range of lengths and sheaths. For indoor settings, in-wall cables are available and tend to feature a more robust protective insulation to prevent fires. For outdoor events, there are a range of durable speaker cables available with substantial casing to protect the internal wires from environmental damage.</p>
