huge variety of audio cables (Chicago, IL 60613)
I have here a modest pile of audio cables that my recording studio has too many of and so we are spring cleaning a little. They include about 3 XLR male to female cables, two of those quite long for microphones, 3 foot-long mono 1/4" cables (used, for example, to link up guitar pedals), an XRL that leads to a 1/4" plug, one cable that has stereo phono plugs leading to stereo phono plugs, a few 1/8" stereo plugs that lead to 1/8" stereo plugs, stereo Midi plugs that lead to stereo MIDI plugs, a stereo 1/4" plug that leads to two mono male XLRs, a male XLR plug that has a split cable leading to two female XLRs. That's basically it, though I didn't account for them all perfectly, but that is the gist. This would therefore be perfect for anybody's home studio setup or for any professional studio with more storage space than I had! The picture shows wire spaghetti but I will try to make neater circular bundles of each cable if I can, but expect something a bit like spaghetti wire in a bag (marinara sauce and parmesan not included).
