Unbalanced Cables: TS To XLR

Connect instruments and unbalanced outputs to professional audio inputs with TS to XLR unbalanced cables, commonly used for linking guitars, keyboards, mixers, and playback devices to gear that accepts XLR input such as mixers, powered speakers, stage boxes, and audio interfaces.

This category includes:

1/4” TS to XLR Male (to plug into XLR input on mixer/speaker)

1/4” TS to XLR Female (less common, for specific routing)

Multiple lengths + straight/angled jack options

TS to XLR cables are commonly used for:

Keyboard / synth unbalanced output → mixer XLR input

Mixer unbalanced output → active speaker XLR input

DJ / playback device → stage speaker (XLR input)

Connecting unbalanced sources to pro-audio systems

TS to XLR unbalanced cables are widely used by musicians, DJs, event crews, teachers, studios, and worship teams. They are a practical solution when equipment has mismatched connector types (1/4” jack to XLR), but the signal is still unbalanced.

✅ Important note:
Even though XLR is normally used for balanced signals, TS to XLR is still unbalanced, so it is best used for short cable runs. For longer distances or noisy environments, it is recommended to use a DI box or balanced output to reduce hum and interference.

Modern TS to XLR cables feature durable shielding, strong connectors, flexible jackets, and reinforced strain relief to improve reliability during live setups and frequent plugging/unplugging.

TS to XLR cables are commonly paired with mixers, DI boxes, keyboards, powered speakers, audio interfaces, and live sound accessories, forming an essential utility cable for bridging different audio connection standards.

From quick stage setups to classroom events, TS to XLR cables deliver easy compatibility, faster setup, and dependable audio connection.
