Good quality cable that has issue when soldering with lead-free solder

leonlag 08.11.2025

The inner conductor insulation cannot withstand the temperatures used used to solder lead-free solder(300C). It's not that big of a deal when soldering the invidual wires since you can simply heat up the contact on the connector and then quickly dip the conductor into the molten solder. The issue is more noticeable when trying to solder the shield as that is obviously wound around the individual conductors and can sink quite a bit of head due to it's bigger diameter.

Soldering this with lead-free solder is definitely doable but I wouldn't buy this again for this reason and would rather look for something with silicone insulation around the conductors.

Good quality and good sounding cable for independent 3 wire XLR plus additional shielding. The shield is very good quality. I measured the capacity for my 5 meter cables. The capacity between the active wires is about 370pF and the shield to active about 600pF. This gives about 1 degree phase error in 20kHz and the frequency start slight to roll off after the 70kHz range.
