Strong match

Who this is for

  • Running a laptop headphone output into a mixer's RCA channel
  • Playing music from a phone through a home receiver
  • Connecting a tablet to powered speakers with RCA jacks

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Gear that needs balanced XLR or TRS connections
  • Long stage runs where hum and noise pickup matter
  • Microphones or any source needing phantom power

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 01

3.5mm stereo mini plug

Splits the left and right channels of a headphone or line output onto separate RCA plugs.

Detail 02

Two RCA males

Red is right, white or black is left. Match colors at the input or the stereo image flips.

Detail 03

Unbalanced signal

Fine at six feet near your gear. Longer unbalanced runs are more prone to hum and interference.

Detail 04

6 ft length

Reaches from a laptop on a table to a mixer or receiver a few feet away.

Detail 05

Male on both ends

Plugs into a headphone jack and RCA inputs. It will not extend another cable.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Check that your destination has RCA input jacks, not 1/4-inch or XLR
  2. 02Direction matters: this feeds a source into RCA inputs, not the reverse
  3. 03Headphone outputs vary in level. Start the volume low and set gain carefully

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Can I use this to record my phone into a mixer?

Yes, if the mixer has RCA line inputs. Plug the mini end into the phone's headphone jack and set the phone volume around two-thirds.

02Will it work with a phone that has no headphone jack?

Not on its own. You would need a USB-C or Lightning to 3.5mm adapter first.

03Does it work in the other direction?

Electrically it can carry signal either way, but both ends are male, so the jacks have to line up as female.

04Which RCA plug is the left channel?

Red is standard for right. The other plug carries left. Match plug color to jack color at the receiving gear.
