You must be using the wrong XLR plugs and receptacles then. High quality Neutrik XLRs are super durable and have a very satisfying click when latched and are not at all wobbly. I've definitely had some 1/4 inch jacks get finicky on me when you move the plug around

Since the receptacle is friction fit, it will wear out and will be wobbly in a year of active use. It will hold itself with the latch and will not lose signal, but not very sturdy.

I have been using both neutrik and switchcraft connectors, 100% original. Thay may seem good for a long time at home, but when used in a studio environment, they wear out quite fast.
