Ensure professional-grade audio performance with our Professional 6.35mm (1/4") TRS Stereo Male Connector. This connector is the industry standard for balanced line-level signals and stereo headphone applications, providing the reliability needed for both studio recording and live sound.
Equipped with gold-plated contacts, this plug offers superior conductivity and long-term resistance to oxidation, eliminating the static and signal loss common with lower-quality connectors. The ergonomic black housing is built for heavy-duty use, offering a secure grip and excellent protection for your custom cable builds.
Gold-Plated TRS Contacts: Premium plating on the Tip, Ring, and Sleeve ensures a clean, corrosion-resistant signal path.
Balanced & Stereo Capable: Three-contact design supports balanced mono signals (to reduce noise) or standard stereo audio.
Rugged Ergonomic Housing: Features a high-impact black shell designed to withstand the rigors of frequent touring and studio use.
Secure Solder Terminals: Large internal terminals and an included insulation sleeve facilitate strong, stable solder connections.
Integrated Strain Relief: The contoured housing tail protects the cable from excessive bending, preventing internal wire fatigue.
Connector Type: 6.35mm (1/4 Inch) TRS Stereo Male.
Contact Plating: Premium Gold-Plated.
Dimensions: 8.0 cm (Length) X 1.2 cm (Diameter).

What is the difference between this and a TS connector?
This TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) connector has three contacts, allowing it to carry balanced or stereo signals. A TS (Tip-Sleeve) connector only has two contacts and is strictly for mono/unbalanced signals (like guitar cables).
Will it fit standard audio cables?
Yes, the housing is designed to accommodate standard shielded balanced/stereo audio cables typically used in professional environments.
Do I need to solder this?
Yes, this is a professional-grade solder-on component to ensure the highest possible signal integrity for your audio equipment.
