Product Description

3-Pin Male to Female XLR Cable

Pro Grade XLR Cable

The Cable Matters 1/4 Inch TRS to XLR Male to Female Cable is the ideal solution for interconnecting audio equipment with the common 1/4" TRS (6.35mm) female port to equipment with a male XLR connector. This full-featured cable has a soft PVC jacket for easy use and storage. Sturdy metal connectors have gold-plated contacts to reduce oxidation and mold strain-relief on the XLR connector to maintain the cable integrity. Heavy gauge 20 AWG oxygen-free copper conductors are encased in bare copper braid shielding to provide pure sound that is noise free.

Important Note:

A condenser microphone needs external DC power to operate. Normally, it is supplied by phantom power.

Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2019
The Cable Matters cable are great!
I'm very impressed, happy with the purchase, see picture #1

Heavier duty than of lot of cables I've bought over the years.
XLR & 1/4" plug look of decent quality, and are well done.
They unrolled flat, do NOT try to retain their wound up shape, and were easy to re-wrap!!

I bought it on the advise of a reviewer who was using it with a Bose L1 Model II, as am I.
In my case, running from a Bose T8S digital mixer's XLR Right (mono) output, into the L1 Model II line in.

Prior to this cable, I was using a 50' mic cable with a "Line Transformer" to 1/4" male at the L1 end.
The volume was much louder than my normal cable (1/4"TRS), and bordered on distortion.
The 50' mic cable was also a nightmare to wrap and untangle later, a real hassle.

With this 25' cable I can do typical short runs, or add a 20-25' heavy mic cable to do the longer runs.
Very handy, multi-purpose.

This cable is super clean and quiet, with the typical amount of volume I'm used to.
I will probably buy another for when I'm running Bose L1 Compacts in stereo for the smaller gigs.

I was so impressed with this cable, that I just bought Cable Matters (1/8 Inch) 3.5mm to XLR 6' Male-to-Male cable,
to run from my Macbook, iPad, or iPhone into a summed single XLR channel on my mixer!
See picture #2 for the 1/8" cable.
Nice to be able to control volume from the Mac with a single rotary fader on the T8S.
Cable Matters with be my new go-to.
