Professional Audio Cable
The Monoprice 104774 is a balanced XLR female to 1/4 inch TRS male cable designed for studio and stage use. It connects microphones, mixers, or instruments to audio interfaces and PA systems. The 50 foot length suits longer runs between equipment racks and performance areas. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for reliable signal transfer.
Straightforward Connection
Installation requires matching the XLR end to a female input and the TRS plug to a balanced 1/4 inch jack. The braided shield protects against electromagnetic interference without adding noise to the signal path. A common issue arises when users plug the TRS end into an unbalanced TS jack, which unbalances the connection and defeats the noise rejection. Ensure both devices support balanced wiring for proper operation.
Studio and Live Sound
This cable suits recording engineers, live sound technicians, and musicians needing long, balanced interconnects. The 16 AWG conductors handle professional line-level and microphone signals cleanly. Buyers needing a shorter run for desktop use or a different connector combination such as XLR to XLR should look at other options. It is not intended for unbalanced instrument cables or consumer headphone connections.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the Monoprice 104774 cable is working correctly after connecting my gear?
Plug the XLR female end into your microphone or mixer output and the 1/4in TRS male end into the corresponding input. A clean, noise-free signal with no hum or crackle confirms the balanced connection and braided shield are functioning as intended.
What does the box contain for the 50 ft XLR to 1/4in TRS cable and what must I source separately?
The package includes the single 15.24 m black cable with gold-plated XLR female and 1/4in TRS male connectors. You will need to provide any microphones, instruments, mixers or audio interfaces you intend to connect.
Which version of this Monoprice Premier Series cable should I choose for my studio runs?
This listing is the 50 ft, 16 AWG model (part 104774) with gold-plated contacts. Select this length when your source and destination are up to 15.24 m apart; choose a shorter model only if the run is significantly less.
