Sommer SC- Spirit LLX Low Loss Instrument/Guitar Cable Per Meter

when dealing with a new guitar cable, this involves creating an extremely low capacitance together with a breathtaking flexibility. Developing an insulation which ensures super low values by means of a gas-injected foaming – this is not an easy job, but well within the bounds of possibility for a professional cable maker. However, protecting this fragile insulation also against motion, creasing or twisting, is indeed a true challenge.

With the SC-SPIRIT LLX “LOW LOSS” we have fallen back on the same insulation design as it is used in professional HD-SD video cables. For extra stability of the inner construction we use an optimised concentrical litz stranding and a special insulation curing on the surface. For the outer jacket we have applied a rubberlike soft PVC jacket, which is highly flexible, extremely compact, stretches hardly and protects the whole inner structure from exterior influences.

Due to its low capacitance and its very special construction the SC-SPIRIT LLX “LOW LOSS” is one of the world’s ultra-low loss guitar cables.

With DIY assembly please watch out that the black carbon screen (sitting on the white insulation) is conductive and must therefore be removed to avoid ground contact with the inner conductor.
