Balanced XLR to TRS cables are some of the most underappreciated cables in the studio. These unsung heroes of the audio world are designed to cancel interference during transmission. By doing so, balanced cables are highly resistant to interference and improve the overall stability of the signal.


XLR to TRS Cable


But how does a TRS to XLR cable manage to achieve this feat? The secret lies in the cable’s balanced construction. A balanced cable, such as an XLR to TRS cable, contains three conductors to pass audio — a positive, a negative, and a ground. When the signal enters the cable, it is duplicated. One signal runs through the positive leg and the other runs through the negative leg in reverse polarities. At the destination device, the two signals are flipped to be in phase with each other again. If any interference occurs during transmission, the interference would be out of phase with itself, effectively removing it from the signal. 


Here at Sweetwater, we offer a range of balanced cables. You can find XLR Female to ¼-inch male cables, TRS to XLR cables, and XLR to TRS cables in our expansive warehouse. We even offer accessories for your XLR cables! You can purchase cable ties, XLR to TRS adapters, and much more.


 There are a couple of things you should look for when you’re searching for a TRS to XLR cable. You don’t want your brand new XLR to TRS Cable to break right away, so make sure you find an XLR to TRS cable with a durable jacket. In the same way, you’ll want to make sure your TRS to XLR has high-quality connectors. A broken connector or damaged XLR to TRS cable is a surefire way to bring your show to a screeching halt. Make sure to have a backup XLR to TRS cable on hand at all times.
