Where to buy honest DMX cables
Hey guys, I'm looking for a place to buy solid DMX 120Ω cables. Ebay and Amazon are a bust, all having "DMX"/Microphone XLR cables, 110Ω impedance... Trying to search for a specific impedance cable seems to be completely ineffective. Any hints or specific places you guys shop for your gear? I always have unstable DMX performance, the longer my run gets, during Halloween. I found out that I have a mix of 120Ω and 110Ω cables, which seems fine for short runs but my run ends up reaching about 300' with close to 30 devices. I guess I should ask if this differential is enough to throw things out of whack or is it just because I am using cheap lights/cables. I read that 110Ω mic cable rounds off the wave form of the data from the DMX controller but I'm curious if it's enough to affect my setup. Any tips would be awesome!

If you're the smartest person in the room, then you're in the wrong room.
