Review: High quality with a clean signal! Perfect for hooking your phone into a mixer. - This is a good solution if you are looking to hook your phone up to your mixing board. At least on my Mackie ProFX12V2, all of the inputs EXCEPT the XLR are downstream of the pre-amp, so you can't use the gain knob. Typically phones don't push a high-gain signal out, so when I was using my 3.5mm TRS to dual 1/4" TS breakout cable it wasn't super audible over what my drum mics were picking up. This cable is high-quality (as are most things from Cable Matters), with very little noise. It is plenty long for my purposes, shorter should have probably been better but it is easy to bundle up with a hook and loop fastener. All of the materials are nice - the connector and the sheathing look like they will withstand plenty of abuse. Best of all, it was fairly inexpensive. Overall, it is perfect for my purpose, which is running a metronome on my phone and routing it through my analog mixer which I use to monitor my drum kit.
Review: Thick, Professional Cable. Great Buy! - Awesome cable. Cable is very thick which is great for noise cancellation. No issues and very professional.
