High Quality XLR? (recommend)

I do agree they are overpriced, but I've never had a Monster fail on me. That's simply why I keep buying them-
If they start crapping out, then I'd move on to something else, of course.

Ymmv?

All of my cables are Monsters. Never had a single problem with any of them.
 
Low impedance cables really do no have an effect on tone unless poor leads are used (cheap allows with resistive elements). Everything from planet waves, monster, to mogami and neutrik will have very little difference, don't beleive in the hype.

High impedance cables on the other hand, need be be made more precise because band manufacture methods will be noticeable even with short lengths.

Price difference between most cables in relative length comes from manufacture quality, meaning, the more expensive cables are more durable.
