[QUOTE="Matt Vivlamore, post: 11152, member: 33"] What would cause an XLR cable to be ~20db lower? Last gig, the Bass Player plugs into my EWI Active DI. The DI was connected to a 10' Mogami (quad cable) connected to a 50' CBI drop 6 stage snake and into a LS9-32. Phantom power was "on". I replaced the 10' Mogami cable with a 15' EWI Starline and everything began to work properly. Yes, I can duplicate it on other sources. I don't know how old the cable is but it looks new. I'm not sure who built the cable, but it wasn't done by a below average guy. I'm not to concern because it was a band left behind cable. Just mainly puzzled that the cable passes signal but it's very quiet. [/QUOTE]
