Cable short-repair?


I have a set of silver pro-silway xlr's. One cable became "loose" at the amp end and is shorting out. Is it possible to have the end repaired or are they now fodder for the archives?

You MUST either repair or replace these cables. This shorting can be a result of extra-loud clicking sounds from your amp to your speakers and might blow the driver(s).
Yes it is easily repairable. XLR interconnects identically connected on both ends. You can unscrew the cover and see how they're terminated. Excactly the same thing you should excersise with your soldering iron to fix or re-terminate. Do no worry if one cable will be shorter than another by a few quarters.
