Hi all.
I'm wondering, I know that whirlwind makes different lines of cables.
I'm budgeting about 35k for a personal portable sound system (32 channel board, 10 sys of wireless, 3 stereo amps (just for size comparison)).
I was PLANNING for all my XLR to XLR to just use Whirlwinds Economy series cables, 5 bucks for a ten footer.
Bad deal? Poor cable? Stop being a cheapo?
I've used worse cables at my church, these things have #$%^& connectors, the kind where you can see the screws, they always come loose, yeah, those type.
Are these cables bad for set up and tear down 3-5 times a week?
No, I'm not going to pay over a dollar a foot, so don't even suggest that.
Making cables isn't in the time picture, so also don't mention that.
