Simplify your signal chain with our Professional XLR Male to 6.35mm (1/4") Mono Male Adaptor. This robust converter is specifically designed to bridge the gap between balanced XLR equipment and unbalanced mono 1/4" inputs. Perfect for connecting professional mixers or stage boxes to guitar amplifiers, DJ gear, or home audio systems without the need for a full cable swap.
Mixer to Guitar Amp: Send a signal from your mixing console's XLR output directly into a standard 1/4" guitar or bass amplifier input.
DJ Controllers: Connect pro-level XLR outputs to consumer-grade powered speakers or receivers with mono inputs.
Powered Subwoofers: Ideal for home theater or small PA setups that utilize 1/4" mono signal inputs.
Effects Loops: Incorporate professional outboard gear into your instrument signal chain with ease.
Unbalanced Mono Conversion: Precision-wired to convert balanced XLR signals into a standard 1/4" Mono (TS) format.
Low-Noise Performance: Features internal shielding and a solid zinc alloy housing to block electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Tour-Grade Construction: The die-cast metal shell is designed to withstand heavy foot traffic, drops, and the rigors of frequent gigging.
Precision Machined Jack: The 6.35mm plug is milled to exact tolerances for a secure, "click-in" fit that won't lose signal if the cable is moved.
Silver-Plated Contacts: Ensures maximum signal transfer and long-term resistance to oxidation and corrosion.
Zero Latency Signal: As a passive adaptor, it provides a direct electrical path with no digital processing or signal lag.
Space-Saving Profile: The rigid, compact design takes up minimal space on your gear’s back panel, preventing clutter and tangles.

Is this the same as a Stereo (TRS) adaptor?
No. This is a Mono (TS) adaptor. It is designed for standard instrument jacks. If you need a balanced connection for studio monitors, we recommend our TRS (Stereo) version.
Will this work for my active bass or keyboard?
Yes. This is perfect for connecting the mono line-level output of instruments into the XLR inputs of stage snakes or mixers.
Is it durable enough for touring?
Absolutely. The all-metal construction is significantly stronger than plastic-molded adaptors, making it a favorite for rental houses and touring technicians.
