Q: 1. What would you recommend coiled or straight cable?

A: Opinions from boompole operators on their preference for a coiled or straight internal boompole cable are mixed and often dependent on the type of audio that is being captured and whether they use a fully extended boompole.

Q: 10. Is the side-exit XLR port suitable for a plug-on wireless transmitter (such as the Sennheiser EW series "SKP"), or will it not attach firmly enough?

A: In theory, yes, you could connect a plug-on transmitter to the side exit XLR output on the K-Tek KE-110CCR Avalon Series Aluminum Boompole with Internal XLR Cable. Ideally, the transmitter would have a locking mechanism for secure connection at the XLR output.
