  This is made from three metres (£16) or five metres (£18) of Sommer Triclone XXl, a very high quality cable plus two straight Tricone XXL Jack Plugs ( HI-J63TC-SM)  specially designed for use with this cable. They include a metal clamping system that grips the cable firmly over a large area. This ensures that no matter what the weight/load put upon the cable the connector stays frimly on the cable. Other lengths are available as well as other connectors. PM me for details.

 

Tricone XXL is one of the best cables for use with instruments and the HiCon jack plugs used onntghese cable are specifically desinged fo nthe cable The signal conductor is bigger than most ensuring that conductor breakages are minimised.

This is what Sommer say about the Tricone XXL:

The Tricone® XXL has a fat PE foam insulation which is firmly enclosed and held in place by a carbon screen. This will optimise the capacitance and ensure a loss-free treble reproduction even over longer distances. This design and the Cu mesh screen will perfectly protect against external interference. The special LONGLIFE COMPOUND jacket ensures a high tread resistance and tensile strength

Advantages:

• Powerful, clear sound with the transmission of any instrument signals
• Dual shielding by Cu mesh screen and conductive carbon screen
• Highly flexible and easy to reel because of its fine single litz design
• Extremely durable and rugged due to LONGLIFE COMPOUND jacket

Application:

• High-quality guitar lead for stage & studio
• Unbalanced cable for all string instruments, keyboards, samplers, mixing desks
  etc.

The HI-J63TC-SM jack plug is made for the Tricone XXL cable and when properly assembled it is probably the best jack plug/cable combination there is.
