[QUOTE="Jason Lavoie, post: 147700, member: 159"] Re: Short in XLR shield ? To be clear, that's an open, not a short.. And yes it does seem odd. a braided shield doesn't just come apart mid cable without some serious damage. I'd suspect a cold solder joint, or maybe if the solder at the end wicked too far and made it outside the connector strain relief then repeated bending could cause a break. Before going to too much trouble I would cut a few inches off and re-terminate Jason [/QUOTE]
