Klotz has released a five-pin MIDI cable with metal connectors and gold-plated contacts in a move it says completes the top end of its MIDI range.
The connection of pins one and three is designed to guarantee DC power supply for manufacturer-specific MIDI-powered devices. The MY504 cable has a 0.14 mm² conductor cross-section (AWG 26) and connectors with easy-grip metal sleeve in a rugged design.
Gold-plated contacts reduce oxidation to virtually zero and the cable is available in lengths of 1, 1.8, 3 and 6 metres.
