My Focal Clears came with a 3-foot-long XLR cable, but I need one that is 10-12 feet long. Is there anyone that sells 4-pin XLR extension cables? And is there any sound quality problem with using a long XLR cable?

• Here is a suggestion. If you look at the Audiophile Ninja website, you can key in / find 11-ft, 4-pin XLR amp-terminated cable for Focal Clear: $90.95 (before shipping/taxes).
• Also, there should be no sound quality problem with an 11-ft length. [In fact, balanced cable was used by the military to maintain voice quality over long runs of telephone cable in WWII.]
• EDIT: expect noticeable improvements over 'stock' Focal headphone cable.

All XLR cables of the same type are extension cables, since they fit into each other. Just grab a 4 pin male to female the length you need.

You might have a look at Hart Audio Cables. The cable they are using (Mogami) is light and flexible.
