Reliability meets high-fidelity with our Standard 3-Pin XLR Male Connector. This is the industry-standard plug for the "mixer end" of your microphone cables and balanced patch leads. Whether you are a studio engineer building custom cables or a technician repairing gear for a live tour, this connector provides the durability and signal purity you need to keep the show running.
Mixer & Interface Inputs: The standard plug used to connect your mics to mixing consoles and audio interfaces.
Patch Cables: Build custom-length cables to interconnect outboard gear, compressors, and rack effects.
PA Systems: Connect balanced line-level signals to amplifiers, crossovers, and active subwoofers.
DMX Signal Chains: Reliable for 3-pin DMX data transmission in professional lighting rigs.
Rugged Zinc Alloy Shell: Die-cast metal housing provides superior protection against physical impact and electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Balanced Audio Architecture: 3-Pin layout (Pin 1: Ground, Pin 2: Hot, Pin 3: Cold) for maximum noise rejection over long cable runs.
High-Grip Internal Strain Relief: Features a chuck-type internal clamp that grips the cable jacket tightly to protect solder joints from being pulled or stressed.
Tapered Rubber Boot: The flexible boot prevents sharp bends at the connector exit, significantly extending the life of your cable.
Silver-Plated Contacts: Offers the highest electrical conductivity and resists corrosion for years of reliable signal transmission.
Easy DIY Soldering: Features large, accessible solder buckets that make assembly fast and clean, even for beginners.
Universal Compatibility: Precision-milled to international standards to fit perfectly into any 3-pin female XLR socket or panel mount.
Type: XLR Male (Plug)
Termination: Solder-on Buckets
Color: BLACK / RED / YELLOW / GREEN / BLUE
Is this the end that goes into the mixer?
Yes. In a standard audio setup, the Male end plugs into your Mixer, Audio Interface, or Wall Box, while the Female end plugs into the microphone.
Will the pins stay in place during soldering?
Absolutely. We use high-grade, heat-resistant internal insulators to ensure the pins stay perfectly aligned even when applying heat with a soldering iron.
Can I use this for speaker cables?
It is intended for balanced line-level signals (like mics or mixer outputs). For high-power unpowered speakers, we recommend using dedicated Speakon connectors.
