Hi,
I'm interested in suggestions and feedback on some combined power and balanced pair signal cable.
I have been using tvl 0110 from Percon, but the failure rate has been unacceptable.
The only options I have found so far are Eurocable and Van Damme, are there any others that I am missing?
They will be used for running powered line array cabinets and would need a minimum of 1.5mm(#14 guage?) conductors.
Cheers,
Darren

Darren,

I don't know what dealers in Australia carry, but ProCo Sound and Gepco Cable make them.  LinkUSA and CBI do, too…but, I don't know what availability is like near you.

Also, have you considered looking into Socapex breakouts (Powercon or Edison)?  That, combined with some cabinet jumpers, could work nicely, too.

We just took delivery of some power/XLR cables from Triclops. Very nice work. They were pre-fabbed with Powercons and XLRs.

What's the deal with triclops/six2? Same people just a name change? Again? Or what?

What indeed.

Geri,
I'm sure PSW would appreciate a Product Review if you get a chance…or maybe just a thread about it versus others you have tried in the past.

I'm using this: http://www.digiflexcables.com/pdf/DFX_Hyb_Sell_EN.pdf

Very happy with them!

A few new names there for me to look into.

Gepco is available here, I got some pricing on it yesterday. So far they are all around the same price, $10 metre.

I'll do a bit more investigating and see if we have distributors for the other brands mentioned. Reliability is at the top of the list after my last experience with the Percon stuff.

Summercable have a nice selection, don't know if their products are available in your market

Lately I've made my own using PVC tape and cables of my own choice. Cheaper and easier if you wish to add or remove a type of cable from your bundle.

Rapco/Horizon have one.  So does Whirlwind, though they don't seem to know it.  CBI has one.

Syntax also has some alternatives. Italian quality :-)
