DJ TechTools’ Chroma Cables have long been a popular choice for DJs who want reliable, high-performance cables for USB devices. Now, they’ve unveiled a new range of audio cables, the Performance Audio Series.
Launching in three colors — neon orange, blue, and red — the range includes various connection types. There’s RCA to RCA, 1/4″ to 1/4,” and RCA to 1/4.”
The cables are designed to have high visibility so that DJs can color code their connections. They have gold connectors and movable strain relief, enabling them to work with any setup. The cables also come with a velcro strap to help keep them tidy while traveling.
After a successful onstage debut at Ultra Music Festival in March, the Performance Audio Series is now available on DJ TechTools’ website. Prices start at $25 per cable, with discounts for large orders.
DJcityTV’s Tips and Tricks host Mojaxx has been testing the cables in the DJcityUK lab for a while and will be sharing his review soon.
