The SATRXL-M25 is a 25-foot balanced XLR male to 1/4" TRS patch cable designed for connecting pro audio gear with different input/output configurations. This bright yellow cable bridges the gap between mixers, equalizers, crossovers, compressors, and amplifiers when your gear uses different connector types.

This balanced cable maintains signal integrity across its 25-foot length, making it ideal for rack-to-rack connections or when you need to position processing gear away from your mixing console. The heavy-duty flexible rubber jacket protects the internal wiring from wear and tear during regular setup and teardown.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and comprehensive shielding, this cable delivers clean signal transfer between your audio components. The metal XLR and TRS connectors ensure solid connections that won't work loose during performances. At 25 feet, you get enough length for most rack installations and stage setups without excess cable cluttering your workspace.

Perfect for live sound engineers connecting outboard gear, studio engineers routing signals between racks, and venues installing permanent sound systems. Whether you're connecting a mixer's XLR output to an amplifier's TRS input or routing signals through a processing chain, this cable handles the connection reliably. The bright yellow color makes it easy to identify in cable runs and helps with organization in complex setups.

Simply connect the XLR male end to your source device and the TRS end to your destination. Each cable comes with Seismic Audio's one-year warranty and ships fast nationwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between XLR to TRS and XLR to TS cables?

XLR to TRS cables like this one carry balanced signals, which means they use three conductors (positive, negative, and ground) to reject noise and interference over longer runs. XLR to TS cables are unbalanced and only use two conductors, making them more susceptible to noise. Use TRS for professional applications where signal quality matters.

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

This cable is designed for line-level connections between audio equipment, not for connecting mixers directly to powered speakers. Most powered speakers accept XLR or 1/4" inputs directly from mixers, so you'd typically use XLR-to-XLR or TRS-to-TRS cables for those connections instead.

How long can I run balanced audio cables before signal degradation?

At 25 feet, this balanced cable will maintain excellent signal quality with no noticeable degradation. Balanced connections can typically run 100+ feet without issues, so this 25-foot length is well within the optimal range for professional audio applications.

What rack equipment commonly uses XLR outputs with TRS inputs?

Many mixing consoles have XLR outputs that need to connect to equalizers, compressors, or crossovers with TRS inputs. Some amplifiers also use TRS inputs while your mixer outputs XLR. This cable solves those connection mismatches in professional sound system installations.

Why choose 25 feet over shorter lengths?

A 25-foot cable gives you flexibility for rack-to-rack connections and allows positioning of processing equipment away from your mixing position. This length works well for most live venues and studio setups without creating excess cable clutter that shorter lengths can't handle.
