Hi there,
I've recently won a bid on ebay for an M-Audio Delta 1010LT and I've already got some KRK RP8's. I want to connect these up via XLR to XLR, the problem is both inputs are female, is there anywhere that does decent, premium, low noise cabling for XLR Male to XLR Male?
Regards,

might have to just do it via adapter and some mogami xlr cables
monster makes one, but you'd be better off with a mogami and a neutrik adapter for the cost
or you could get a xlr m to trs cable and still have a balanced connection

Mogamai's are a bit of a rip off price wise tbh, Van Damme cables are highly regarded and reasonably priced so if your budget is tight go for those. You can custom configure exactly what you need from these guys

Nice one mate! Just to double check... I'm going for Speaker cable, Van Damme 2.5mm, Male XLR to Male XLR, 3M. The code is: MX-MX-A030
Sound alright to you?
Regards,

Looks fine but if you want to be double sure that's what you need send them an email, I had a few question when I bought mine and they were happy to help.

Can I just make something clear? I've been e-mailing the guy back and forth today. Im under the impression I need XLR Male to XLR Male, as there is a female connection on both the M-Audio Delta 1010LT (which is actually a mic preamp but is able to be switched to a balanced line).... and a female connection on the reverse of the KRK Rokit RP8. Is this correct?

Adapters are the cheapest way to go if you already have some XLR cables. I just had to get some myself for the same situation with this weird pre-amp that I found.
