![]() I don't have any EWI snakes, so but have heard good things, and if EWI's bulk mic quad mic cable is any indication, is probably a very good product. If you're on a budget, go get a CBI or EWI if you can't afford the high end stuff. Thus far I haven't had any problems with it, but that's mainly because it doesn't really get "used" in the traditional sense (it never uncoils).įor a permanent install, they might be passible, but I certainly wouldn't use one in the traditional sense. I ring it out with a cable tester after every use. It'll hold up as long as you don't uncoil it, so in short, don't use their stage snakes as well, snakes, because the cable will probably fall apart after regular use. I drop it on the stage next to the FOH stage box, bring in my "real" snake and patch everything in one place. The only way I use this thing is to not uncoil it. The ends are passible but far from ideal. The cable is stupidly heavy (this thing weighs almost as my 32x8 150' CBI that has good quality lo-cap Belden, but only has 45' of multicore). The outer jacket is abysmal, it doesn't over under well at all, and you can feel the inner channels move around under the jacket when you manipulate the cable. It's got a ridiculous OD (for example, it's almost twice the OD Of my 40 channel "real" snake with only about half the channels). I knew it was a cheap POS going into it, and knew what I was getting into. I've got one of Seismic's 24 channel 15/30' splitter snakes.
