The best XLR (Mic) Cable ReelΒ for Musos and RoadiesΒ 

Setup & packup your gig with ease, save time and protect your valuable gear.

Flat Out's Multi-Reels are perfect for cable management for singers, musicians, sound and lighting technicians! They stack together for added space management, look great with your kit, but most importantly they keep your valuable leads and cables safe, protected and well organised. When stacked together your cables are literally armour platedΒ in transit due to the solid backs of the reels.Β 

Now with all sizes available in stealthy Matte Black -Β Multi-Reels are even better forΒ entertainment professionals as they will disappear on stage.Β Β 

Parallel stack multiple leads of the same length into our Multi-Reels so all roll out at once tangle free. Or, windΒ cables in one after the other (see videos).

The Compact Multi-Reel fits approx. 4x 10m XLR leads (or 8x 5m)Β  with the Narrow and Original Multi-Reels offering 1.5x and 2x capacity respectively. You can use Flat Out Multi-Reels for your extension leads, coaxial cable, and long guitar leads too.Β 

There are various ways to hand-roll cable to prevent twists such as the over-under technique. In a Multi-Reel, the cables enter in a linear fashion, so they will not develop twists, hence adding to the longevity of your gear without need for the time consuming advanced skill. And as the Multi-Reel is so intuitive to use, you can hand the job to anyone (useful after a long performance), and be confident they will not damage your leads while they help you pack up.Β 

  • Australian Made with 3-year warranty
  • Front to front stacking for compact storage
  • Constructed from heavy-duty impact-resistant plastics
  • Free standing or wall-mountable
  • Fast and easy to wind and release
  • Superior lead storage and protection
