Product Overview

The Neumann IC 5 mt (Model: 006624) is a specialized, high-performance 5-pin XLR microphone cable designed for Neumann's multi-capsule and stereo microphone systems. Spanning 10 meters (approx. 33 feet) and finished in a professional Matte Black (mt), this cable is engineered to carry multi-channel signals with absolute precision. It is the essential link for microphones like the legendary USM 69 i stereo microphone or any Neumann system requiring a 5-pin connection to maintain total sonic transparency.

Product Description

Multi-Channel Signal Precision: Unlike standard 3-pin cables, the IC 5 mt features 5-pin XLR connectors designed to carry stereo signals or specialized control voltages without crosstalk. Neumann’s internal wiring ensures that each channel remains perfectly isolated, preserving the phase integrity and spatial detail of your stereo recordings.

Elite Double-Helix Shielding: To guarantee a dead-silent recording environment, the IC 5 mt is equipped with Neumann’s signature double-braided copper shield. This high-density construction provides 100% coverage against Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), making it safe for use near large lighting rigs, power cables, or wireless transmission towers.

Pristine Audio Fidelity: This cable is engineered with extremely low capacitance. This is critical for 10-meter runs, as it prevents the loss of high-frequency "air" and detail. Whether you are capturing a massive orchestral room or an intimate vocal, the IC 5 mt ensures the signal reaches the destination exactly as the capsule captured it.

Stealth Matte Black Finish: The "mt" designation signifies a durable, non-reflective matte black jacket. This is the preferred choice for television studios, film sets, and live concert recordings, as the cable does not reflect studio lights and remains visually discreet on camera.

Professional-Grade Durability: Despite its complex internal wiring and heavy-duty shielding, the 5 mm diameter cable remains remarkably flexible. It is designed to lay flat on studio floors without "memory" kinks and can withstand the rigors of daily professional use in high-traffic recording environments.
