Gotham GAC-7 is arguably the finest 7-conductor tube microphone cable in the world. It has excellent shielding, high-quality copper conductors, and low capacitance.

Neutrik XLR7 connectors are the long-standing industry standard for premium XLR microphone cables.

In 2024, Neutrik was forced to change the formulation of the black plating on these connectors. The new e-coat / "NTK" coating is an insulator (?!?!), which renders the black plated parts incompatible with every tube mic. The cable housing no longer makes electrical contact with the devices at either end, which compromises shielding performance. Therefore as of October 2025, we have switched to nickel plated XLR7 connectors for these cables, unlike the photos shown on this page. 

These cables are 20 feet (6m) in length. The jacket color is gray. (The jacket looks black in the photo, but is dark gray in color.)
