FAQs

Can I use this for a condenser microphone requiring phantom power?

This adaptor is a passive connector and is generally not recommended for microphones requiring phantom power, as it may not effectively pass the required voltage.

Does this support balanced audio?

The 6.35mm side is a stereo (TRS) socket, which is designed to handle stereo signals. When using an XLR source, ensure your equipment is configured for the intended stereo or mono output.

How do I clean the adaptor?

Use a dry, lint-free microfiber cloth to wipe the exterior and the metallic contacts. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.

Is this suitable for permanent stage installations?

Yes, its durable silver housing is designed to withstand the rigors of frequent use, though it is best used in situations where cables are properly strain-relieved.

What are the dimensions of the unit?

The unit measures 85mm in length, with a 18mm diameter.

Troubleshooting

No sound coming from the connected device

Verify that the connection is fully seated in both the XLR and 6.35mm ports. Check that the source device is outputting a signal and the volume on the receiving device is turned up.

Intermittent audio or buzzing

Check the cable attached to the XLR side for physical damage. Ensure the adaptor's metal contacts are clean and free of dust or debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely compact and lightweight for easy transport
  • Solid metal build quality for long-term reliability
  • Provides a secure, stable connection for audio signals
  • Versatile use across studio and live performance gear

Cons

  • Not intended for use with phantom power applications
  • Does not include built-in impedance matching
  • Large size relative to smaller jack inputs may require support for long cables

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the adaptor, simply insert the 3-pin XLR male connector from your cable into the adaptor and then plug the 6.35mm end into your target device. Ensure the jack is pushed in firmly to engage the stereo connection. When not in use, store the adaptor in a dry, cool environment to prevent oxidation of the metal connectors. Clean the contacts periodically with a dry, lint-free cloth to ensure optimal conductivity. Avoid dropping the adaptor on hard surfaces, as impact may cause deformation to the precision-fit pins or the 6.35mm sleeve.
