About the On-Stage IC-25 Instrument Cable (QTR-QTR, 25')

The On-Stage IC-25 is a professional-grade, 25-foot instrument cable designed to deliver clean, uncompromised audio signals between instruments and amplification systems. Engineered primarily for electric guitars, bass guitars, keyboards, and studio equipment, this cable features standard, high-durability 1/4-inch (QTR) straight male TS connectors on both ends. The internal core utilizes a high-quality, oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductor that maximizes signal transmission efficiency while preserving the natural tonal dynamics and frequency response of the connected instrument. To prevent performance disruptions during live shows or rehearsals, the cable is wrapped in a heavy-duty, flexible PVC jacket that resists kinking, tangling, and physical wear.

To ensure pristine sound delivery in demanding audio environments, the IC-25 incorporates an advanced dual-shielding architecture that actively rejects unwanted noise interference. A conductive copper spiral shield works in tandem with an inner conductive PVC layer to isolate the audio path, effectively eliminating hum, buzz, and radio frequency interference (RFI). This multi-layer defense also drastically minimizes microphonic handling noise caused by moving or dragging the cable across a stage. The 25-foot length provides musicians with an optimal balance of freedom of movement on stage without inducing the signal degradation or high-frequency roll-off often associated with longer cable runs.

FAQs about On-Stage IC-25 Instrument Cable (QTR-QTR, 25')

What instruments and gear is this 25-foot cable compatible with?

It works with any equipment using standard 1/4" (6.35mm) mono jacks, including electric guitars, bass guitars, keyboards, acoustic-electric pickups, amplifiers, and pedalboards.

What connector types are featured on this cable?

The cable features standard straight 1/4" (TS male) heavy-duty metal plugs on both ends. This classic straight-to-straight design fits easily into recessed jacks, pedalboard inputs, and amplifier channels.

Is 25 feet a good length for live stage performance?

Yes, a 25-foot cable gives musicians ample freedom to move around large stages without feeling constrained, while maintaining strong signal integrity and tone clarity.

How does this cable guard against unwanted noise and hum?

It utilizes high-density spiral copper shielding combined with low-capacitance insulation to block electromagnetic (EMI) and radio frequency (RFI) interference, ensuring a clean, quiet signal.

Are the 1/4" connectors durable and repairable?

Yes, it is constructed with nickel-plated metal plugs featuring built-in strain-relief boots. The metal housings can be easily unscrewed for routine maintenance or solder inspection.

Is the outer jacket flexible enough to lie flat on stage?

Yes, the cable is wrapped in a high-flexibility PVC jacket that resists kink memory and tangling. It lays flat across stage floors and coils up smoothly for quick tear-downs.

Can I use this instrument cable to connect an amplifier head to a speaker cabinet?

No, this is a shielded instrument cable intended only for instrument-level signals. Connecting amplifier heads to speaker cabinets requires heavy-gauge, unshielded speaker cables to avoid damage.

Will this 25-foot cable cause any tone or high-end loss?

No, its oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductors provide clear, transparent signal transmission across all audio frequencies, preserving your instrument’s natural highs, punchy lows, and dynamic range.
