In the 2nd video of the XLR Microphone cable DIY series, Gary Cable shows you the importance of tinning the wire ends in preparation for soldering.
Our first video covered choosing the correct wire for your application, and preparing it by stripping the wire ends.
In our final video, Gary shows you how to solder the pieces together and test your connection.
