Audio Adapter for XLR Connections
This American Recorder Technologies adapter joins two XLR female cables or devices. It provides a straight male-to-male gender change without altering the signal path. Audio engineers and installers use it to extend microphone runs or connect balanced line-level gear.
Suits balanced audio patching.
The adapter fits any standard three-pin XLR female socket, making it useful in studios, live sound and broadcast racks. It does not convert impedance, change pin wiring or adapt to 1/4-inch or RCA connectors. Buyers who need signal transformation or unbalanced interfacing should look at a different device.
Changer type XLR male-to-male defines the only
The single specification that decides fit is the XLR gender-changer design: two male ends on one barrel. No other interface, protocol or active circuitry is present. If your connection requires a female XLR on one side or a different connector family, this part will not work.

Questions about this item
How does the XLR male-to-male changer connect two cables in a real setup?
It joins two XLR female connectors directly, turning a pair of standard microphone or line cables into a single longer run without any active electronics.
What signal standard does the XLR interface carry and what limits it in practice?
The three-pin XLR passes balanced analogue audio; the practical limit is the cable length and the connected gear’s input/output impedance, not the adapter itself.
What physical space is needed to fit the adapter between two XLR cables?
The barrel sits inline between the two connectors, so allow enough room for both cable boots and the adapter body to sit straight without side strain.
