Monoprice 104780 25ft XLR Male to RCA Male Cable 16AWG Gold Plated

Balanced-to-unbalanced audio link

This 25 ft XLR male to RCA male cable converts a balanced signal to an unbalanced one for direct connection between professional gear and consumer inputs. Two 16 AWG oxygen-free copper conductors run in a twisted pair with 97.5 percent copper braid shielding. Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion and maintain low contact resistance. The standard pinout ties XLR pins 1 and 3 to the RCA shield and pin 2 to the tip.

Lifetime-warranted interconnect

Monoprice backs every unit with a lifetime warranty, so the cable can stay in a fixed install or travel with a gig bag without support concerns. The heavy braid and twisted-pair construction rejects noise on long runs where thinner leads would pick up hum. Gold plating survives repeated mating cycles in patch bays or studio panels. No active electronics are required because the conversion is purely passive.

Rack, stage or home studio fit

The 7.62 m length spans from a mixer or interface across a room to powered monitors, a recorder or a hi-fi preamp. Male-to-male ends plug straight in without gender changers or adapters. The cable carries one audio channel; stereo pairs need two runs. Builders who need balanced-to-balanced links or digital coaxial routing should choose a different cable type.
