The SATRXL-F25 is a 25-foot balanced patch cable designed for live sound engineers, studio professionals, and mobile performers who need reliable connections between XLR and TRS equipment. This cable bridges the gap when your mixer outputs XLR but your amplifier, compressor, or equalizer has 1/4" TRS inputs.

This balanced cable maintains signal integrity across its 25-foot length, connecting 3-pin XLR female outputs to 1/4" TRS male inputs without signal degradation. The balanced design ensures clean audio transmission in professional applications where noise rejection matters.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and comprehensive shielding, this cable delivers consistent performance in demanding environments. The heavy-duty rubber jacket withstands the wear of regular setup and breakdown while the bright orange color provides easy identification in cable runs.

Perfect for connecting mixing consoles to power amplifiers, rack-mount processors to monitor sends, or studio outboard gear to console returns. The 25-foot length works well for medium-sized venues, control room setups, or stage configurations where equipment racks are positioned away from the mixing position.

Standard 3-pin XLR female connects to any professional mixer or processor output, while the 1/4" TRS male plugs directly into amplifier inputs, compressor inputs, or equalizer connections. Cable comes ready to use with molded connectors on both ends.

Seismic Audio backs this cable with a one-year warranty and ships within one business day. Professional-grade construction at a price that works for working musicians and sound professionals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment does this XLR female to TRS cable connect?

This cable connects XLR outputs from mixing consoles, audio interfaces, or rack processors to 1/4" TRS inputs on power amplifiers, compressors, equalizers, or monitor controllers. It's commonly used to send balanced signals from mixer main outputs to amplifier inputs, or from console auxiliary sends to external effects processors.

Is this cable balanced and will it reduce noise?

Yes, this is a fully balanced cable that maintains the balanced signal path from XLR output to TRS input. The balanced design, combined with proper shielding, helps reject electromagnetic interference and provides cleaner audio transmission compared to unbalanced connections, especially important in longer cable runs like this 25-foot length.

Will 25 feet work for my venue setup?

A 25-foot cable works well for medium-sized venues, studios, or stage setups where your mixer is positioned moderately far from amplifier racks or monitor sends. This length is ideal for control room connections, small to medium church installations, or mobile DJ setups where equipment needs to be separated by 20-25 feet.

Can I use this cable to connect my mixer directly to powered speakers?

This cable is designed for line-level connections between professional equipment with XLR and TRS inputs. If your powered speakers have XLR inputs, you'd typically use an XLR male to XLR female cable instead. This XLR female to TRS cable is specifically for connecting to equipment with 1/4" TRS inputs like amplifiers or processors.

What's the difference between this and an unbalanced cable?

This balanced cable carries the audio signal on two conductors plus a ground, allowing noise rejection through common-mode rejection. Unbalanced cables use only one conductor plus ground, making them more susceptible to noise and interference. For professional applications and longer runs like 25 feet, balanced cables provide noticeably cleaner audio transmission.
