Description
This Citronic audio lead carries two channels between XLR female connectors and 6.3mm (1/4 inch) mono jack plugs. It measures 1.5 metres, which suits short runs between mixers, powered speakers, and other studio or stage gear where you need to keep the signal path tidy. The twinned design keeps both channels together in a single cable, so it is easy to route and store.
The cable is built with pure copper conductors, using 2 x 12 strand at 0.1mm diameter per core, along with cotton reinforcement for added strength. Each core sits within a twin 5mm diameter jacket (5 x 10mm overall), and the shielding helps keep interference out of your audio. The outer jacket is soft-grip and rubberised, which cuts down on tangling and makes the lead comfortable to handle during setup and pack-down.
The connectors are die-cast XLR female fittings paired with 6.3mm mono jack plugs, and the connections are machine-soldered for consistent, reliable joints. This build is aimed at regular use, whether you are wiring up a fixed install or moving kit between venues. If you need a dependable lead for balanced-to-jack conversion at a fixed length, this one covers the basics well and holds up to repeated handling.
