Description
This Citronic audio lead gives you two balanced signal paths in one cable, with two female XLR connectors at one end and two male XLR connectors at the other. It runs 6.0 metres, which suits stereo runs between mixers, amplifiers and active speakers where you want to keep your cabling tidy rather than trailing two separate leads. The die-cast XLR connectors are pro quality and machine-soldered, so the joints stay solid through repeated setups and pack-downs.
The build uses twinned high-grade cable with pure copper conductors, each made up of 12 strands at 0.1mm diameter. Cotton reinforcement runs through the core to help the lead cope with bending and handling, and the outer jacket is a soft-grip, rubberised finish that resists tangling. The twin cable measures 5mm in diameter per core, presented as a flat 5 x 10mm profile that lies neatly on stage floors and desks. Shielding across both signal lines helps keep interference out, which matters over longer stereo runs.
Wiring follows the standard balanced pin-out: pin 1 ground, pin 2 hot and pin 3 cold. That means the lead works as a straightforward balanced interconnect for most professional and semi-pro audio gear, carrying clean signal with good rejection of noise. Note that XLR here refers to the three-pin connector common across microphones and line-level audio; the female end accepts the male output on your source device. With two channels in one length, this is a practical choice for permanent installs and mobile rigs alike.

Frequently Asked
What is this cable used for?
It carries two balanced audio signals at once, so you can link stereo outputs and inputs between mixers, amplifiers and active speakers using a single 6.0m lead rather than two separate cables.
Is it a balanced cable?
Yes. Both signal paths use the standard balanced pin-out of pin 1 ground, pin 2 hot and pin 3 cold, which helps reject noise over longer runs.
What are the connectors?
Two female XLR connectors at one end and two male XLR connectors at the other. All four are die-cast with machine-soldered connections.
What is the cable made from?
Twinned high-grade cable with pure copper conductors, each 12 strands at 0.1mm diameter, plus cotton reinforcement and a soft-grip rubberised outer jacket.
How long is the lead?
It runs 6.0 metres, giving you enough reach for stereo connections in most stage, studio and install setups.
Will it reduce tangling on stage?
The rubberised jacket is anti-tangle and the flat 5 x 10mm twin profile lies neatly on floors and desks, so it stays manageable during setup and pack-down.
