After adding a Lazuli Reference into the signal chain, I find I simply don't have need (or can honestly tell the difference) for yet another long XLR cable for the Utopia. I am fastidious about the condition of my gear and this cable is no exception--to the best of my ability to discern with my human eyes, this cable is in simply outstanding condition--no kinks or frayed sleeves anywhere to be found. I'll pack it carefully and cover insured shipping within the US; overseas trading partners please contact me and we can talk about shipping arrangements to your locale. Thanks for looking, and please drop me a line if you have any questions.
