1/4" male stereo (TRS)
The tip and ring carry left and right. Plugging it into a mono jack collapses or shorts one channel.

American Recorder Technologies1/4" Male Stereo to 2 RCA Female Adapter Gold
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 1/4" stereo (TRS) male plug splitting to two female RCA jacks. For patching a headphone-style stereo output into RCA inputs.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Sending a stereo 1/4" output to RCA inputs on a receiver
- Connecting a mixer or keyboard headphone out to a stereo
- Filling a gap in a studio patch box
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Mono 1/4" instrument or mic signals
- Splitting one signal to two amps
- Long runs — this is a short adapter, not a cable
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
2 RCA female
Accepts two existing RCA cables. It does not include RCA cables — you supply those.
Detail 03
Gold plating
Resists corrosion, which matters most on connections you leave patched for months.
Detail 04
Adapter, not cable
Rigid body hanging directly off the jack. Heavy RCA cables can put strain on the socket.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No RCA cables included — this is the adapter only
- 02Stereo TRS only; a mono 1/4" source won't split correctly
- 03Rigid adapters hang off the jack — support it on gear you move
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this split my guitar signal to two amps?
No. This is a stereo TRS breakout — tip and ring go to separate RCA jacks. A mono guitar signal won't split into two proper channels.
02Does it come with RCA cables?
No. It's the adapter only; you connect your own RCA cables to the two female jacks.
03Can I use this to connect a mixer's headphone out to my stereo?
Yes. That's a common use — the stereo 1/4" out feeds the two RCA inputs.
04What does the gold plating do?
It resists corrosion on the contact surfaces, which helps most on connections left in place long-term.
