Customer reviews about Neutrik NP2 XL

HG

Great construction

Hilario G. 23.11.2013

I needed this plug as my choice of cable for darker sounding guitars (low capacitance, Cordial CGK Road 75) is slightly thicker than most guitar cables.
In a way I was rather annoyed that I needed a different type to the model of Neutrik plug that I had been using in the past but in a way I don't mind it so much now as this slightly 'enlarged' type is not only as good as the regular Neutrik plug but the oversided body has more metal so -in a way- it feels as it provides an even more solid and robust feel to it.
By the way, soldering your cable onto it is not easier or more difficult that when using your regular Neutrik plug.
The only downside is that this plug is a bit more expensive than the regular one but still good value for money for a very good quality product.

Great product for professional use

Metall0 15.05.2020

I used this jack on a really fat cable (95mm dia) in a professional guitar cable and it proved to be fenomenal.
the spacer-and sleeve construction makes soldering an easy job and the whole construction is sturdy and good looking.

Nice design idea, but could be improved

Konstantin871 02.05.2013

I really liked the design idea of this jack connector. I like how it snugs the cable and holds it in place. However, the connector was kind of hard to work with. The central connection (tip) is kind of exposed and the sleeve connection is just like a big bowl. I was always worried that it would disconnect and make a short inside. That and my low confidence in my soldering skills made me go with a fully assembled manufactured cable.

Another Neutrik quality product

PiperAlpha 05.07.2023

Buying Neutrik, you know what you get. This connector is no exception. I bought this to use with a speaker cable (with 2,5mm2 conductors). Soldering copper conductors of that diameter onto the "cups" in this conductor is difficult for a soldering newbie. I can't imagine being able to solder a thicker conductor securely in this plug simply because there's the space is so limited.

XL = for thick cables

Violilanist 14.06.2019

Learnt my lesson when tried to use it with normal mic/instrument cable. Did not work. NP2 XL is recommended for thick 8-10mm cables. Otherwise chuck will not clamp onto the cable.

Great for building speaker cables

Martin C. 377 14.05.2013

If you've ever tried to make up a speaker cable with 2 x 2.5mm² cable in a standard jack plug, you'll know how hard work it is. These XL size jacks are the answer - really rugged, easy to put together, and as with all Neutrik jacks, easy to solder. Just what you want in a speaker jack.
