## Description

Connect up to eight channels of audio between equipment with 1/4-inch TRS jacks using this 8-channel 1/4-Inch TRS male to 1/4-inch TRS male snake cable from Monoprice! This Snake cable features eight balanced mono or unbalanced stereo lines with color coded wires (Red, White, green, yellow, Black, Blue, gray, and brown). Each wire is constructed of a pair of 26 AWG conductors with aluminum foil shielding to protect from stray em and RF interference.

Review: Great mini snake - This snake cable delivers solid performance and reliability for a budget-friendly price. The 26AWG wiring provides clean signal transfer with good shielding against interference. Each channel is clearly numbered on both ends - a crucial detail that makes setup and troubleshooting much easier. The molded strain reliefs are robust and should hold up well to regular use. The TRS connectors have a secure fit with good contact pressure, clicking firmly into place without being overly tight. Three feet is an ideal length for rack-mounted gear, helping minimize cable clutter while providing enough slack for comfortable connections. The jacket material is appropriately flexible without feeling cheap or prone to kinking. For a budget snake, the build quality exceeds expectations. The solder joints appear well-executed, and the internal wiring configuration maintains proper channel separation. It handles both balanced mono and unbalanced stereo signals cleanly, making it versatile for various studio applications. One minor consideration is that the cable diameter makes it slightly stiff - not an issue for most installations but worth noting if you need extreme flexibility. While not boutique-level construction, this snake provides excellent value for home studios, mobile rigs, or anywhere reliable multi-channel connectivity is needed without breaking the bank.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Review: Great snake (can also be turned into patch cables) - These worked great as a short snake for a rackmount mixer. They are also great if you remove the outer sleeving to obtain yourself 8 short patch cables at the lowest price per 1/4 patch cable you can likely find ;)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Colours make routing patches and signals much easier and more apparent at a glance
*by H***S on November 25, 2025*

great cables for mixers and recording. Colours make it easy to see where the signals are going. Handy length for wiring home studios. Solid connections and no audio interference make these a treat to use. I own two pairs and will buy more as needed - certainly made rewiring my studio easier.
