Mogami PLATINUM STUDIO 03 3' XLR Microphone Cable

The Mogami PLATINUM STUDIO 03 is a 3-foot balanced XLR microphone and line cable for short studio connections. It provides a male 3-pin XLR connector on one end and a female 3-pin XLR connector on the other. This compact length is useful for linking microphones, preamps, interfaces, converters, and nearby powered speakers without excess cable slack.

Built for studio recording, mastering, and high-end A/V installations, this cable supports both analog audio and AES3 digital audio connections. Its 110-ohm characteristic impedance is designed for AES3-compatible signal transmission. It can also serve as a balanced analog XLR cable where a short interconnect is needed.

The cable uses two high-purity oxygen-free copper conductors in 18 AWG size. Low capacitance and controlled impedance support extended-frequency signal transfer in suitable analog and digital systems. A full-coverage served spiral shield helps reduce susceptibility to radio-frequency interference.

Its red and white insulated conductors are contained in a black PVC outer jacket with a clear LDPE monofilament filler. The finished cable has a nominal outer diameter of 7.8 mm. Polished black chrome XLR connectors provide the cable's studio-oriented termination.

PLATINUM STUDIO 03 is intended for fixed or carefully managed studio use rather than frequent rough handling on a live stage. It is a practical choice for short runs between balanced XLR-equipped gear, including microphones, audio interfaces, AES3 equipment, powered speakers, and subwoofers. A limited lifetime warranty is included.

Key Features

• 3-Foot XLR Cable: Provides a tidy short-run connection between nearby audio components.
• AES3-Compatible Design: Supports AES3 digital audio as well as balanced analog signals.
• 18 AWG OFC Conductors: Uses high-purity oxygen-free copper signal conductors.
• 110-Ohm Impedance: Matches the cable design to AES3 digital-audio applications.
• Served Spiral Shield: Provides approximately full coverage for interference protection.
• Studio-Focused Construction: Designed for recording, mastering, and installed audio environments.

Design & Installation

The PLATINUM STUDIO 03 is built around Mogami W3402 cable with two 19/0.25A OFC conductors, CPP insulation, a clear LDPE monofilament filler, and a black PVC jacket. Its served shield uses approximately 100 strands of 0.18A conductor. The cable is finished with Mogami 3-pin XLR male and female connectors.

Connect the female XLR end to a microphone or other XLR output and the male XLR end to a compatible XLR input, following the connector requirements of the equipment being used. The 3-foot length is best suited to close-proximity studio interconnects and neat equipment-rack or desktop routing. It is not intended for frequent or rough live-stage handling.
