Balanced XLR-to-TRS cable for pro audio
This 10-foot cable connects an XLR female output to a 1/4-inch TRS male input using 16AWG conductors. It is built for studio recording, live sound and broadcast setups that require a balanced signal path. The separate braided shield adds interference resistance without modulating noise into the signal. The design also helps prevent ground-loop issues in complex rigs.
Verify connector gender and signal level
Check that your source device presents an XLR male output and your destination accepts a 1/4-inch TRS female jack. Confirm both ends operate at line level or the appropriate instrument level for your gear. Ensure the balanced wiring matches the pinout expected by your interface or mixer. The 3.048-metre length should reach between rack units or stage positions without strain.
Integrates into balanced audio chains
The cable slots between microphones, preamps, mixers or powered speakers that use XLR and TRS balanced connections. Its shielding keeps the noise floor low when running near power cables or lighting dimmers. The 16AWG construction handles the current demands of professional line-level signals. Use it to link patch bays, stage boxes or direct boxes without adding unbalanced adapters.

Questions about this item
Does the Monoprice 4770 XLR female to 1/4in TRS male cable ship with any adapters or accessories, or is it just the cable itself?
The box contains only the single 10 foot balanced cable with gold-plated XLR female and 1/4in TRS male connectors. No adapters, ties or extra hardware are included, so nothing else needs to be bought to make the connection.
The spec lists 16AWG construction — how does that gauge affect the choice versus a thinner or thicker cable for studio runs?
At 16AWG the conductors are thick enough to keep resistance low over the 10 foot length while remaining flexible for stage or desk routing. Thinner gauges would add loss on longer runs; thicker gauges are stiffer and only needed for much longer distances.
What does the separate braided shield actually do when the cable is plugged into a mixer or interface?
The braided shield surrounds the twisted pair independently, so induced noise is intercepted and drained to ground without being mixed into the audio signal. This keeps the balanced connection quiet even near lighting dimmers or power supplies.
