Neutrik NC5 MXX

Having previously tried cheaper brands of XLR connector, and learned my lesson the hard-way, I returned to Neutrik and was not disappointed. XLR connectors are not all made equal and, especially for more than three pins, it's worth paying a little more for the increased robustness. Cheaper makes often won't tolerate re-soldering well and/or have inferior plastic parts that melt or split easily costing more in the long-run. I've even had some that don't mate correctly with chassis sockets because of poor tolerances on the shell dimensions. Stick with Neutrik !

I have been using hundreds of Neutrik connectors for years and never had a single failure. They are nicely built, very tough, and solder-friendly. Can't recommend them enough!

Always same quality with neutral.
I had face no signal loose. I am using his connectors in standard midi connection from my gig to my midi equipped midi control. I am using with D-Type Neutrik 5 pin female chases connector. Locking option is fantastic and solid for touring guys.

They might be a little more expensive than other brands but they are worth it because of the time and pain (burned fingers) saved when assembling them

price range very good. same excellent quality from neutrik

An absolutely top quality connector, these are pretty much the industry standard. Easy to assemble, no melting plastics, and great strain relief. I have never had a Neutrik connector let me down - Well worth the extra over cheap connectors.

5 pin XLR is as good as all Neutrik connectors. I use it to connect stereo mics set to field recorder via 4-core cable.
Works perfect!
Recommended.

Neutrik always make great connectors and this is no exception, excellent

Very durable connector, easy to solder and to re-solder, I've cut and cleaned the connectors several times without problems. They lock in easy and secure.

Neutrik top quality products !!!
