The SA-TSR5-S 4-pack delivers four high-quality 1/4" TS to RCA mono cables for connecting mixers to amplifiers, DJ controllers to powered speakers, or any gear requiring unbalanced RCA-to-TS connections. Each cable handles mono signals, making this pack ideal for stereo setups where you need separate left and right channel connections.
These unbalanced patch cables feature durable construction with molded connectors that resist wear from frequent plugging and unplugging. The 5-foot length provides enough reach for most rack configurations while keeping cable runs neat and organized. Each cable maintains signal integrity across the frequency spectrum, ensuring your audio passes through without coloration or loss.
Perfect for mobile DJs connecting controllers to powered PA speakers, bands linking mixers to power amplifiers, or home studio owners routing audio between interfaces and monitors. The 4-pack format means you can handle stereo connections with spares for backup, or wire multiple mono sources simultaneously. Whether you're setting up a small club system or a church sanctuary sound rig, these cables handle the essential connections between your mixing console and amplification.
Installation is straightforward – RCA end plugs into mixer outputs or DJ controller, TS end connects to amplifier inputs or powered speaker line inputs. The pack includes four identical 5-foot cables, giving you everything needed for stereo connections plus backups.
Seismic Audio backs these patch cables with a one-year warranty and ships them ready to use out of the box.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between TS and TRS cables for this application?
TS (Tip-Sleeve) cables like these SA-TSR5-S models carry unbalanced mono signals, which is exactly what you need for most mixer-to-amplifier connections. TRS cables carry balanced or stereo signals, which wouldn't be appropriate for connecting RCA outputs to standard amplifier inputs. These TS cables match the unbalanced signal level that most consumer and prosumer gear expects.
Can I use these cables to connect my DJ controller to powered speakers?
Yes, these cables are perfect for connecting DJ controllers with RCA outputs to powered speakers with 1/4" line inputs. Connect the RCA end to your controller's master output and the TS end to your speaker's line input. You'll need two cables for stereo operation – one for left channel, one for right channel.
What size venues work well with gear connected using these cables?
These patch cables themselves don't limit venue size – they're simply the connection between your mixer and amplification. They work equally well whether you're connecting a small 100-watt amp for coffee shop gigs or a 1000-watt power amplifier for outdoor festivals. The venue capacity depends on your speakers and amplifiers, not the patch cables linking them.
Do these cables work with both line and instrument levels?
These cables will physically connect any RCA output to any 1/4" TS input, but they're designed for line-level signals like mixer outputs, not instrument-level signals from guitars or basses. Using them with instruments may result in weak, quiet signal that needs significant amplification. For instrument connections, you'd typically want a dedicated instrument cable.
How many cables do I need for a basic stereo PA setup?
For a standard stereo PA system, you need two cables – one for the left channel from mixer to left amplifier input, and one for right channel to right amplifier input. This 4-pack gives you the two cables you need plus two spares, or enough cables to run two complete stereo setups.
