Description

Routing a stereo output into two XLR inputs should take a minute, not a session. This 1/4 inch TRS to dual XLR cable carries left and right on separate connectors, with red and black bands to show which is which. The double-shielded 6.0mm cable and gold-plated contacts keep the connection clean from the desk to the stage.

Stereo 1/4 inch to dual XLR cable with double shielding and gold-plated connectors for clean audio connections

Solves
  • Connecting a stereo line output to two XLR inputs
  • Channel confusion when routing left and right signals
  • Signal interference from unshielded cable

Left and right land exactly where they belong

Stop guessing which channel is which before every session. One 1/4 inch stereo plug splits cleanly into two colour-coded XLR connectors you can trust.

One plug in, two channels cleanly split

Red and black channel identification on the two XLR connectors of the cable

Left and right, clearly marked

The red band sits on the right-channel XLR and the black band on the left. Match the colours to your inputs and the left signal stays on the left. No tracing wires, no second guessing halfway through a take.

Double shielding for cleaner signal

The 6.0mm cable carries two layers of shielding, a step up from a basic single-shield lead. That extra layer is there to cut down on interference in busy rooms with power runs and lighting nearby.

Compatible devices and connector types for the stereo TRS to XLR cable

Metal shells and gold-plated contacts

Both XLR bodies are black-painted metal, and the pins and the 1/4 inch tip are gold-plated. Those metal parts take repeated plugging at a desk or on a stage, and the gold contacts keep the connection consistent over time.

Match the colours and you are done

  1. 1
    Plug the TRS end into the stereo output

    Connect the 1/4 inch stereo plug to the line or headphone output of your mixer, interface or audio player.

  2. 2
    Red XLR goes to the right input

    Push the red-banded XLR into the right-channel input on your amp, powered speaker or second mixer input.

  3. 3
    Black XLR goes to the left input

    Connect the black XLR to the left-channel input. Check both channels with a quick line test before you play anything.

Questions and answers

Will this work if my mixer or amp has two XLR inputs and I need a stereo feed?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes, that is the job it is built for. One 1/4 inch TRS stereo output splits into two 3-pin XLR males, so the left channel goes to one XLR input and the right channel to the other. Check that your receiving inputs are XLR line inputs before you connect.

Which colour is left and which is right?
w
Wanelo · seller

Black is the left channel and red is the right channel. The colour bands sit on the XLR bodies, so you can match them to your inputs without reading tiny labels.

Is the 6.0mm cable too thick for a rack or stage?
w
Wanelo · seller

It is a firm, full-size cable rather than a thin patch lead. The soft rubber jacket bends without much fuss, but it needs some slack when you route it behind a rack. Leave a loose loop near each end and it will sit neatly.

Does the double shielding and gold plating make a real difference?
w
Wanelo · seller

Double shielding is there to cut interference from nearby power lines and lighting, which is the main source of hum in a home studio or a small venue. Gold-plated pins and tips resist corrosion, so the contact holds up through repeated plugging. A cable that stays quiet and keeps its routing saves you the re-takes and set-up time that cheap adapters cost you.

Can I get a longer length if 1 m is too short?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. The cable is offered in 1 m, 2 m and 3 m lengths. Pick the length that covers the distance between your mixer or player and your amp or speakers, with a little slack left over.
