elephant 425
The wires are running hot…
and the crowd is cheering when the speaker walls are turned up all the way. Then not only the spirits are heating up, but also the cables. This puts very high demands on the cable which means that the outer jacket of the cable must be as thick as elephant skin. But it should also be flexible, robust, tread-resistant, easy to reel and of course reusable time and again.
Compare it with other speaker cables – the ELEPHANT is bound to convince you all out!
Advantages:
- Loss-free transmission due to the special litz stranding technology
- Highly flexible and stage-proof, easy to reel
- Compatible with the common NEUTRIK® speakON® connectors
- Easy to use due to well-insulated, numbered wires
Application:
- Professional PA systems
- Surround and woofer systems
- For permanent installation

Binary 234 AES/EBU MKII
Swinging with your girlfriend...
like Tarzan in the jungle. With this cable you could just do that: it can take a lot of tugging, bending, and rough wear and tear. This is important when installing it in sharp-edged lighting trusses.
The Binary 234 AES/EBU MKII is an outstanding cable for the transmission of digital signals in the 110 Ω AES/EBU and DMX data format. Its shielding is provided by an aluminum-vaporised fleece and a helical copper mesh screen with 100 % coverage. So it offers a very good protection against electric and magnetic interferences. This cable ensures an error-free data transfer over distances of up to 1000 metres. With the Binary 234 AES/EBU MKII you’ll be on the safe side.
Advantages:
- AES/EBU- and DMX-conformant, highly flexible
- Very good shielding due to the use of a helical copper mesh screen plus
an aluminium-vaporised fleece - Extremely rugged due to the special tough jacket
- Only a little more expensive than a standard microphone cable
Application:
- Networking of scanners, lighting systems, digital mixing consoles etc.
- For indoor and outdoor installation
- Connection of digital audio amplifiers, DAT recorders etc.

SC-Galileo 238
Dual screen...
shields better. Just like the SC-SYMBIOTIC, but a little bit more exclusive due to the dual reversely stranded helical copper mesh screen and the wire pairs embedded in PVC. This makes it even more flexible. Because of the thicker wire diameter (2 x 0,38 mm²) it is suitable for distances greater than 100 meters. This cable is technically sophisticated and may be the best microphone cable on the world market. Your clients in the recording studio will be surprised at the low-noise transmission!
Advantages:
- Extreme long life and twist-proof due to the thick jacket and the wire pairs embedded in PVC
- Absolutely neutral and loss-free audio transmission due to the use of fine copper
wires - Excellent protection due to the dense reverse dual mesh screen
- Very flexible due to the tightly stranded conductors and wires
- Loss-free transmission over long distances due to a large wire gauge of 2 x 0,38 mm²
Application:
- Highly professional studio and stage technology
- Demanding OB van technology for radio and broadcasting
- First-class hifi connection (red and white conductors on pin 1, separate shielding)
SC-Quantum QMC 08
A true allrounder...
because it could not be any longer, faster or more flexible. The SC-Quantum QMC is just the cable that all “bending radius fetishists“ like event technicians, musicians and ambitious live sound people have always been dreaming of! The SC-Quantum QMC is absolutely torsionfree, i.e. it can be wound in a figure of “8“ easily and will not twist when winding or unwinding it.
Not only the S-PVC-jacket, which is cold-resistant down to –30 °C and notch-resistant, feels soft – due to the
superfine 0,07 mm (!) individual copper litz and the PE-insulated wire insulation, even the interior is wonderfully supple and unbreakable. From the 8-pair version upward we have included an extra yellow/green protective earth wire to provide for added stability and safety (PE = protective earth).
The electrical and mechanical data are likewise remarkable: each wire pair is additionally tube-insulated, numbered and shielded by a helical Cu mesh screen with a 99 % coverage.
Go figure this: the SC-Quantum QMC stands out with its low 45 pF wire/wire capacitance and will remain 110 Ω (AES/EBU) conform for several hundred metres!
The wire pair diameter is perfectly suitable for direct
mounting (e.g. of an XLR connector). The interior is
protected against adverse influences by a highly flexible
PVC jacket with a wall thickness of almost 2 mm.
There has never been a cable with such electrical and
mechanical values for such a low price!
Advantages:
- Each wire pair is individually insulated and shielded by a helical Cu mesh ( coverage)
- Very low wire/wire capacitance
- Highly flexible and reelable without twisting
- In compliance with AES/EBU ()
- Affordable price
Application:
- Professional stage and live multicore for separate or central earthing
- Creation of highly flexible studio looms, analogue and digital
- Permanent Installation

Tricone® MKII
String artists...
will be delighted at this cable.
The Tricone® MKII is a flexible cable for guitar or keyboard and equally interesting for the live musician, studio keyboarder and the home recorder. Because of its decent wire gauge of 0,22 mm² and the fine single 0.10 mm wires, it is protected against cable break and convinces with high bending cycles. It is very robust, easy to reel and very reasonably priced. When making cables, care should be taken to remove the conductive shielding (black PVC hose) from the insulation so that it won’t touch the inner conductor.
Tricone® MKII is a protected and registered trademark of SOMMER CABLE GmbH.
Advantages:
- Very robust due to the large wire cross-section and fine Cu single wires
- Good electrical values due to the Skin PE insulation
- 100 % protection by dual shielding (helical copper mesh screen + conductive carbon screen)
- High number of bending cycles
Application:
- Dependable cable for live applications (guitar and keyboard)
- Economy-priced Line-in or Patchcable for the Homerecorder
