Description
The Citronic S6J-XM600 is a shielded audio lead built to carry a balanced signal between a 6.3mm stereo TRS jack plug (also called a 1/4-inch jack) and a male XLR connector. It runs to 6 metres, which suits stage and studio setups where you need to route audio across a reasonable distance without stretching or strain. The connectors are die-cast for a solid feel and dependable long-term use.
Inside, the cable uses pure copper conductors, with two runs of 20-strand 0.1mm wire, plus cotton reinforcement to help the lead hold up to repeated coiling and handling. The outer jacket is a soft-grip, rubberised, anti-tangle design measuring 6mm in diameter, so it stays flexible and easy to pack away. Connections are machine-soldered for consistency across the join, and the shielding helps keep interference out of your signal.
The pin-out follows a standard balanced wiring scheme: sleeve to pin 1, tip to pin 2, and ring to pin 3. That makes it a straightforward choice for connecting balanced sources such as a mixer output or DI box to an XLR input. If you work with live sound, recording, or fixed installs, this lead gives you a reliable connection with clean audio and hardware that stands up to regular use.

Frequently Asked
Is this a balanced cable?
Yes. It uses a stereo TRS jack and a three-pin XLR, wired for a balanced signal with sleeve to pin 1, tip to pin 2, and ring to pin 3.
What size jack does it use?
It uses a 6.3mm stereo TRS jack plug, also known as a 1/4-inch jack, at one end, with a male XLR connector at the other.
How long is the cable?
This version is 6 metres long, giving you enough reach for most stage and studio routing without excess slack.
What is the cable made from?
It has pure copper conductors, two runs of 20-strand 0.1mm wire, cotton reinforcement, and a soft-grip rubberised jacket that resists tangling.
What can I connect it to?
It suits balanced connections such as a mixer or DI box output with a TRS jack going into an XLR input on a device or amplifier.
Are the connectors soldered by hand?
No. The connections are machine-soldered, which gives a consistent join across the die-cast connectors.
