The SA-TSR5-S patch cable connects your mixer's RCA outputs to equipment with 1/4" TS inputs, or vice versa. This 5-foot unbalanced cable bridges the gap between consumer and pro audio gear when you need reliable RCA to quarter-inch connectivity.

This adapter cable handles unbalanced mono signals between RCA and 1/4" TS connections. The 5-foot length provides flexibility for studio setups and live rigs without excess cable clutter that can create signal issues or stage hazards.

Built with quality connectors and proper shielding, this patch cable maintains signal integrity across the connection. The unbalanced design works with standard line-level signals from mixers, audio interfaces, and consumer audio equipment. Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion and ensure consistent contact over time.

Use this cable to connect your mixer's tape outputs to a recording interface, route signals from a DJ mixer to powered monitors, or integrate consumer audio gear into your pro audio setup. It works well in home studios, small venues, and mobile DJ rigs where you need to bridge different connector types.

The cable features RCA mono on one end and 1/4" TS male on the other. No additional adapters needed – just plug and play between your equipment.

Seismic Audio backs this patch cable with a one-year warranty. Professional-grade connectivity that won't break your budget, shipped fast so your rig stays running.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between TS and TRS cables for this connection?

This TS (tip-sleeve) cable carries unbalanced mono signals, which is perfect for most mixer outputs and basic audio connections. TRS cables carry balanced or stereo signals, but won't provide any advantage over TS for standard RCA to quarter-inch patching in most setups.

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

Yes, if your DJ mixer has RCA outputs and your powered speakers have 1/4" TS inputs. This cable works great for that connection. Just make sure you're connecting to line-level inputs on your speakers, not mic inputs.

Will this cable work for recording from my mixer to an audio interface?

Absolutely. This is a common studio application – connect your mixer's RCA tape outputs or aux sends to your audio interface's 1/4" line inputs. The 5-foot length is ideal for desktop studio setups without excess cable.

Is this cable suitable for small venue sound systems?

Yes, this cable works well for small venues up to 100 people where you need to patch between different types of audio equipment. It's commonly used to integrate consumer playback devices or DJ mixers into PA systems with 1/4" inputs.

Do I need anything else to make this connection work?

No additional adapters needed. This cable has RCA on one end and 1/4" TS on the other, so it directly connects equipment with those connector types. Just ensure your signal levels match – both ends should be line level for best results.
