Professional XLR male to TRS patch cables designed for connecting mixing consoles to outboard gear like equalizers, compressors, crossovers, and power amplifiers. When your mixer outputs XLR but your rack gear needs 1/4" TRS inputs, these balanced cables bridge the gap without signal degradation.

Each cable delivers clean, balanced audio transmission over 25 feet, giving you the reach needed for typical rack-to-mixer configurations in studios, live venues, and installed sound systems. The heavy-duty rubber jacket protects the internal wiring from stage abuse and repeated coiling.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and comprehensive shielding to maintain signal integrity across the full audio spectrum. Metal XLR and TRS connectors provide secure, reliable connections that won't work loose during performances or long studio sessions. The bright blue color coding helps with cable management in complex setups.

Perfect for live sound engineers connecting digital mixers to analog processing gear, studio engineers routing console outputs to external compressors, and installed sound systems where the signal path requires XLR-to-TRS adaptation. Works equally well for connecting active monitors with TRS inputs to mixers with XLR outputs.

Simply connect the XLR end to your mixer's balanced output and the TRS end to your destination gear's balanced input. Each pack includes six 25-foot cables, providing enough connectivity for stereo pairs plus additional channels.

Backed by Seismic Audio's one-year warranty with fast shipping direct from our warehouse. Professional-grade connectivity that doesn't break the budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment do these XLR to TRS cables connect?

These cables connect mixing consoles with XLR outputs to rack-mounted gear with TRS inputs, including equalizers, compressors, crossovers, and power amplifiers. They're also useful for connecting mixers to active monitors that accept TRS inputs, or routing audio between different pieces of professional audio equipment with mismatched connector types.

Will these work for connecting my mixer to powered speakers?

Yes, if your powered speakers have TRS inputs and your mixer has XLR outputs. However, many powered speakers use XLR inputs, so check your speaker's input panel first. These cables are specifically for bridging XLR outputs to TRS inputs, maintaining balanced signal transmission throughout the connection.

How many channels can I connect with a 6-pack of these cables?

You can connect up to six mono channels or three stereo pairs with one 6-pack. This covers most common scenarios like connecting a stereo main output plus four aux sends, or handling left/right plus center/sub channels in a multi-zone setup. The bright blue color helps identify these connections quickly during setup.

Are these cables suitable for permanent installation or just live sound?

These cables work well for both temporary live sound setups and permanent installations. The heavy-duty rubber jacket withstands repeated coiling and movement for touring applications, while the quality construction and shielding make them reliable for fixed installations in studios, churches, or conference rooms.

What's the difference between these and regular instrument cables?

These are balanced cables designed for professional line-level signals between audio equipment, while instrument cables are typically unbalanced and designed for high-impedance instrument signals. The balanced design of these XLR-to-TRS cables provides better noise rejection and signal integrity over longer runs, making them ideal for connecting professional audio gear.
