n_maher Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 I actually thought that the Vampire XLRconnectors that I came into contact with (fixed a cable for someone) were pieces of junk. Neutriks, while not the most pretty (although I'd argue that point as well), are friggen bullet proof and cheap to boot. Maybe GE can weigh in on this since I'm guessing that he would be a solid source of this type of info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFKMan23 Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 I never knew that vampire made a 4 pin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBLoudG20 Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Yeah oops, I kinda neglected the 4 pin part. I chose to read what I wanted to read, and spout off random bull shit about it. Neutrik Does make some quality connectors. I've used thsoe like 500000 times, and the vampire 3 pin once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFKMan23 Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 What do you guys think about the botique level stuff like the Xhadow and Furutech? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 What do you guys think about the botique level stuff like the Xhadow and Furutech? All I know is that I have a damn hard time paying ~$70 for a connector when the $4 alternate seems to be plenty well made. It'd be one thing if the Neutrik connectors felt like shit or something, but my experience is actually the opposite with some of the "higher-end" connectors feeling crappier than the Neutriks. And there's also the problem that is I don't think either Xhadow or Furutech makes a 4 pin XLR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 does furutech make 4 pin XLRs? I just checked Furutech's Japanese site and there is no mention of 4-pin XLR plug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Enigma Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 You are all right. The only 4-Pin XLRs I know of are made by the likes of Neutrik. It is not a typical "Audiophile" standard plug so no company has ventured out that way yet. To be honest I am surprised that there are even options when it comes to 1/4" plugs from the likes of Furutech, Cardas and Vampire.... not that those aren't just rebranded products from China anyway. Gold Neutrik should do you just fine. The silver is a bit more open and detailed while the gold seems to be a bit warmer and darker... though I am not sure if the 4-Pin comes in anything but gold.
