The SA-Y2.3 4-pack delivers professional XLR splitter cables for engineers, DJs, and venue operators who need to split balanced signals to multiple destinations. Each 3-foot cable splits one XLR female input to two XLR male outputs.

These balanced splitter cables handle the critical task of sending one microphone or line signal to two separate inputs simultaneously. Whether you're feeding a vocal mic to both front-of-house and monitor consoles, or distributing a DJ's output to multiple recording devices, these Y-cables maintain signal integrity across both paths.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors, each cable delivers clean signal transmission without degradation. The 3-foot length provides enough reach for typical rack and console setups without excess cable clutter. Standard 3-pin XLR connectors ensure compatibility with all professional audio gear.

Live sound engineers use these for splitting vocal mics between main and monitor mixers. Recording studios rely on them to send the same source to multiple preamps or interfaces. DJ setups benefit when routing master output to both venue sound systems and recording equipment simultaneously.

Each cable connects any XLR output device to two XLR input destinations. No additional adapters or power required. The 4-pack format covers most small to medium venue splitting needs.

Seismic Audio backs these splitter cables with a full one-year warranty. Professional-grade construction at a practical price point for working audio professionals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use these splitter cables to combine two XLR signals into one?

No, these are passive splitter cables designed to split one signal to two destinations, not combine two signals into one. Using them backwards could damage your equipment or create impedance mismatches. For signal combining, you need an active mixer or combiner circuit.

What's the difference between using a splitter cable versus a direct box with multiple outputs?

Splitter cables are passive devices that simply divide the existing signal between two outputs, which can reduce signal level slightly. Direct boxes with multiple outputs typically include active buffering to maintain full signal strength to each destination. For short cable runs and line-level signals, these splitters work perfectly fine.

Will these work for splitting phantom-powered microphones?

Yes, these balanced XLR splitters will pass phantom power from both destination inputs back to the microphone. However, make sure both devices you're splitting to can handle receiving phantom power, or use phantom blocking adapters on inputs that cannot accept it.

How much signal loss should I expect when using these Y-cables?

Passive XLR splitters typically introduce 3-6dB of signal loss as the signal is divided between two paths. This is normal and rarely causes issues with professional microphones and line-level sources that have adequate output levels. Most mixing consoles can easily compensate with additional gain.

Can I daisy-chain multiple splitter cables to create more outputs?

While technically possible, daisy-chaining splitters compounds signal loss and can create impedance matching problems. For splitting to more than two destinations, use a dedicated signal distribution amplifier or active splitter designed for multiple outputs rather than chaining passive Y-cables.
