Detail 01
TRS on one end, female XLR on the other
Balanced throughout. Both connectors carry hot, cold and ground, so noise picked up along the run cancels at the input.

MogamiGold Studio 1/4" TRS-Female XLR Cable 10 ft.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 10 ft. studio cable with a 1/4" TRS plug on one end and a female XLR on the other. For balanced runs between recording gear.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Feeding a mixer or interface TRS output into an XLR-input device
- Patching a balanced line into a powered monitor's XLR jack
- Fixed studio runs where the cable stays plugged in
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Plugging a microphone in — the XLR end is female, not male
- Guitar and pedal use, which needs unbalanced 1/4" mono
- Anyone needing a run longer than 10 ft.
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
Female XLR end
It mates with a male XLR output — a mic, a preamp out, a DI box. It will not plug into an XLR input jack.
Detail 03
TRS, not TS
The 1/4" end has two rings. Plugging it into an unbalanced TS jack works but drops the balanced noise rejection.
Detail 04
10 ft. length
Sized for desk and rack work. Long enough to reach a monitor beside you, short enough not to pile up behind the desk.
Detail 05
$87.95 for one cable
Studio-grade construction. The payoff shows on quiet signals and long sessions, not on anything already loud and distorted.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check the connector genders on both devices before ordering
- 02Cable only — no adapters or gender changers included
- 0310 ft. goes fast once routed behind a desk or rack
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I plug a microphone into this?
No. The XLR end is female, so it accepts a male XLR output. A microphone's own connector is male and needs a female-to-male mic cable.
02Does the TRS end work in a mono 1/4" jack?
Physically yes, and signal will pass. You lose the balanced connection, so you also lose the noise rejection you're paying for.
03Will this connect my interface to a powered speaker?
Yes, if the interface has a 1/4" TRS output and the speaker has a female XLR input. That's the common studio monitor setup.
04Is this the same as a mic cable?
No. A mic cable is male XLR to female XLR. This converts a balanced 1/4" TRS connection to XLR instead.
