Does anyone have any experience with Sommer Cable Peacock Twin (Shotgun) Balanced Cable? I want to use it to make balanced splitter cables to connect my Topping EX5 to my iLoud MTMs and Presonus Sub8. And it looks ideal for my little project...

Building a splitter cable would:
- Reduce the number of cables run through the cable snake (it's a bit busy in there).
- Avoid sending the signal for my monitors through the Sub8 (which might be a bit noisy https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...ough-and-hpf-measurements.60664/#post-2221902).
- Give me a bit more play in my cables (the ones I use now are only just long enough).
