the sssnake SXX8050

I bought this one together with the sssnake SXX8100 for a small stage setup to avoid lugging a heavy overkill 30-meter 16/4 snake.

The build quality is exactly what to expect at the price tag. Unlike in the picture, the cable I received was black and had white numbered sleeves on the individual cores instead of the neater coding rings on the Neutrik X-series style plugs. The strain relieves in the cheap plugs don't grip the small cores too well, but that's somewhat expected. It also came with a basic velcro strap to keep the cable coiled up for storage.

In my use case I had need for 6/2 send/return configuration instead of the 8/0 it was built as, so I exchanged the plugs of cores 7 and 8 to make it suit my needs better instead of investing in four adapters or running two additional cables.

I bought a coupe of these looms over a year ago now and have since been back to buy more because they are just so handy, i now have 5 of these purely because they tidy up the stage so much. the cable is good quality, easy to coil, and hard wearing. the numbering of the breakout cable is clear, and i have had no problems with any of the connectors at all. i use them to run cable to my amp racks and then to separate sections of the stage to save running all the individual cables directly into the stage box. i would recommend these to anyone doing live sound, and for the money.... you cant do much better.
