Tone Shield™ Technology

Four layers between your signal and the noise

RF, electrostatic and EMI noise from wireless devices, lighting dimmers and bad wiring wreak havoc on signal transfer — some of it gets past even good shields. Tone Shield™ is our specific combination of shielding layers and OFC copper ratings, and it's what makes these cables quiet where it counts.

Specs shown are for Professional Series microphone cable. Instrument cable uses a 92% spiral OFC shield with a conductive polyethylene sub-shield to fight handling noise.

1
24k gold plated metal connectors

Gold is a noble metal — it doesn't readily react with chemicals in most environments, so the connectors retain conductivity over time.

2
95% tin-coated OFC braided shield

Braided rather than spiral, for the strongest RF/EMI rejection with the most durability — no shield failure from frequent use.

3
21 AWG 99% OFC quad core

Four cores, not two. Oxygen-free copper prevents corrosion and maximizes conductivity, insulated with polyethylene to boost tonal clarity.

4
Cotton batting core separation

Minimizes twist during winding and coiling, separates each core to reduce RF/EMI transfer, and promotes the highest fidelity possible.

Why we exist

We got tired of cables that died mid-set

Tone Vault Audio & Media™ was formed as a recording studio business by musicians in active gigging bands. Doing work in multiple facilities as well as in a mobile fashion, all while playing live music also — we've tested the performance and longevity of cables and the demands needed for a great, go-to cable.

That's the whole reason the specs read the way they do. Braided shield instead of spiral because spiral fails when you coil it a thousand times. Gold pins because corroded pins crackle. Cotton batting because twist is what kills a cable from the inside. None of it is marketing — it's a list of the things that went wrong on stage.

Questions

The things people ask us most

Full technical FAQ lives on each product page. These are the greatest hits.

How fast do you ship?
Shipping is free on every U.S. order, with no minimum. Orders process in 1–3 business days, and delivery runs 3–7 days after that. You'll get tracking by email once it's on the way. We currently ship within the U.S. only.
What's your return policy?
Returns are accepted within 30 days. Separately from returns, every cable carries a limited lifetime warranty against failure — so a cable that dies in year three is a warranty claim, not a return.
What makes the Professional Series different from other mic cables?
Better shield coverage, and more durable connectors with 24k gold plated pins. Gold is a noble metal — it does not readily react with chemicals in most environments, meaning gold plated connectors retain their conductivity over time.
Why are 4 core cables better than other mic cable designs?
RF (radio frequency), electrostatic and EMI (electromagnetic induction) noise from wireless devices like cell phones, electrical dimmers, fluorescent lighting and bad wiring practices wreak havoc on signal transfer within microphone cables — some of this noise can get past even the best shields. Four cores give the interference far less to work with.
Do these cables break easily?
No. The Professional Series mic cables use a braided shield to achieve the strongest RF/EMI rejection with the most durability. Braided outlasts spiral under repeated coiling.
Can my mic cable be used as a connection for powered speakers?
Yes. Powered speakers are expecting to see a line level signal, which Tone Vault cables are capable of handling. They should not be used as a speaker cable under load between an amp and a passive speaker — the core sizes are meant for lower voltages that need RF/EMI shielding.
What's the best way to wrap a cable so it lasts?
Over-under wrap is the way to go, for both ease of handling and the longevity of the cable. Every cable ships with two cable wraps to make that easy.
What can I do if my cable breaks?
If you have the original purchase receipt you can request a repair or replacement by contacting us at [email protected]. We'll collect your name, phone, email and receipt, and send you a prepaid label. Professional and Headliner Series cables are covered for life; Artist Series is covered for 2 years.
