Studio Cables Matter (Now 100% Mogami)
I was using ProCo Quad XLR cables with gold Neutrik connectors from my mic to my preamp (and then a short TRS 1/4" to the interface). They are very good cables, but they were a bit old and had been used (but not harshly) before I put them in my studio.
Out of curiosity, I subbed them out with an old used Audio Technica cable which are made in the Mogami factory to Mogami specs. It sounded better: as if I had a noticeable preamp upgrade. Sure enough, on the analyzer there was more low and high end as I was hearing.
So I put two and two together and purchased all new Mogami cable with gold Neutriks for my studio. I'm very happy with the results. I've dropped my noise floor by about 3db and it just plain sounds better!

Wow, a 3db difference just from cords. That is most impressive!
I love Mogami cables!
I'd totally believe that replacing the old cable would give a good noise cut.
In this age of digital, this is one of those simple upgrades that's oft overlooked.
