Should this be offensive?
"Microphone cables, unlike guitar
cables, use a female connector on one
end and a male connector on the
other. This enables microphone cables
to be daisy-chained, hooked end to
end, to increase length when necessary.
This requires a very narrow tolerance
for size and pin locations in the
connectors, to ensure that the female
XLR (the one with the locking
mechanism) will lock and unlock
when mated to its male counterpart.
Complicating these problems is
one manufacturer in America who
uses English measurements, a lot of
oriental copiers who have approximated
the English measurement
with metric measurements, and the
manufacturers who are not copiers
and make great, “to spec” connectors
using metric measurements.
Yup! You guessed it. There are
compatibility problems. Furthermore,
there are some budget minded
equipment manufacturers who will
use oriental knockoffs in their back
panels, exacerbating the problem."
