SA-Y86 - 6 Foot 1/4 Inch TRS Male to Dual 1/4 Inch TS Y Splitter Cable
The SA-Y86 TRS to dual TS Y splitter cable is built for musicians, DJs, and sound engineers who need to split stereo signals or access mixer insert points. This 6-foot cable handles the daily routing challenges that come with live sound and studio work.
The cable takes a single 1/4-inch TRS stereo output and splits it into two separate 1/4-inch TS mono signals. This lets you send a stereo headphone output to two mono mixer channels, or use it as an insert cable to patch external processors into your mixer's signal chain.
Built with 24-gauge conductors and shielded construction to prevent signal interference, the SA-Y86 features nickel-plated connectors that resist corrosion and maintain solid connections over time. The tip and sleeve cables are clearly labeled to eliminate guesswork during setup. A flexible black PVC jacket protects the cable from wear while remaining manageable in tight spaces.
Use this cable to split DJ mixer headphone outputs for multiple monitoring positions, connect stereo keyboard outputs to separate mixer channels, or access insert points on mixing consoles for outboard effects processing. It's equally useful in home studios for routing stereo sources to individual tracks or in live venues for signal splitting applications.
The SA-Y86 connects any device with a 1/4-inch TRS output to two devices with 1/4-inch TS inputs. No additional cables or adapters required – everything needed for the connection is built into this single cable. Backed by Seismic Audio's one-year warranty and direct customer support for technical questions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between TRS and TS connectors on this cable?
The TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) connector carries stereo signals with left and right channels, while the two TS (Tip-Sleeve) connectors each carry a single mono signal. This cable splits the stereo TRS signal so the left channel goes to one TS output and the right channel goes to the other TS output.
Can I use this cable to connect my DJ mixer's booth output to two separate speakers?
Yes, this cable works well for splitting a stereo booth or headphone output to feed two mono powered speakers or amplifier inputs. The tip and sleeve outputs are clearly labeled so you can maintain proper left/right channel assignment.
How do I use this as an insert cable on my mixing console?
Connect the TRS end to your mixer's insert jack, then connect the tip output to your processor's input and the sleeve output to your processor's output. This creates a send/return loop that lets you patch external effects or compressors into individual mixer channels.
Will this cable work with my keyboard's stereo output?
Absolutely. Connect the TRS end to your keyboard's stereo output jack, then run the two TS ends to separate mixer channels. This gives you individual control over left and right channels and lets you pan each side independently if needed.
What size venues or applications work best with this cable type?
This cable works in any venue size since it's a signal routing tool rather than a power-handling component. Whether you're in a home studio, club, church, or large venue, the SA-Y86 handles the same splitting and insert functions reliably.
