Built for studios, stages, and everything in between, the Studiospares Stage Box & Snake combines dependable performance with practical connectivity. Oxygen-free copper conductors and spiral shielding help maintain a clean signal across every channel, while numbered / alphabetised connectors, colour-coded returns, die-cast connectors, secure cable grips, and a durable PVC jacket are built to handle regular setup and transport.
Oxygen-free copper (OFC) helps minimise signal loss for clear audio, while nickel and silver-plated contacts provide dependable signal transfer. A spiral-wound copper screen also helps reduce interference from nearby equipment.
Each connector is clearly numbered / alphabetised, making it easy to identify channels and route your connections correctly. A moulded cable separator keeps each channel neatly organised at the fan-out point, helping prevent tangles and making setup quicker.
Designed for regular use, each cable features a durable die-cast zinc alloy connector, a chuck-style cable grip to reduce strain on the internal wiring, and a protective rubber boot that helps minimise bending stress at the connector.
The heavy-duty PVC jacket helps protect the snake from everyday wear while remaining flexible enough for easy routing and coiling. It's built to cope with the demands of regular setup, transport, and pack-down.
