audio cable
Connects speaker equipment
An audio cable is a cord designed to transmit sound signals between devices—connecting speakers to amplifiers, microphones to mixers, or instruments to recording equipment.
Common types include RCA cables, XLR cables, and 3.5mm aux cords.
The quality of an audio cable can affect signal clarity, though debates about premium cables often exceed audible differences.
