It's made for getting sound out of an mp3 player, smartphone, tablet or laptop and into a mixer or active speaker. The left and right signals are summed to mono, so you get a single balanced-friendly output from your device's headphone socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe've built this lead for regular use. It uses pure copper conductors with cotton reinforcement, a shielded design to keep interference down, and machine-soldered connections for consistency. The XLR male end is a die-cast connector, and the jacket is a soft-grip, rubberised finish that resists tangling. The cable measures 3.5mm in diameter, with a centre conductor of 10 x 0.1mm copper and shielding of 28 x 0.1mm copper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a straightforward way to plug a portable device or laptop into PA and audio gear that takes XLR input. The 3.5mm jack (sometimes called a 1\/8-inch or mini jack in the US) fits standard headphone outputs, and the male XLR suits most powered speakers and mixer channels. At 1.5m it's a handy length for a stage or desk without leaving too much slack to manage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnectors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5mm stereo jack to XLRM unbalanced\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable : diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5mmØ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConductors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ecentre - 10 x 0.1mmØ Cu\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable : length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.5m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePin-out\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTip + Ring summed to mono\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does this lead connect?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt connects a device with a 3.5mm stereo headphone output, such as a phone, tablet, mp3 player or laptop, to gear with a male XLR input like an active speaker or mixer channel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the signal stereo or mono?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe left and right signals are summed to mono, so both channels combine into a single output on the XLR end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is the cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cable is 1.5m long, with a diameter of 3.5mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the conductors made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePure copper.
