FAQs
Can this adaptor be used for stereo signals?
No, this adaptor is specifically designed for unbalanced *mono* audio signals. It will not correctly transmit stereo audio.
Is this adaptor suitable for balanced XLR connections?
No, this adaptor converts a 6.3mm mono jack to a 3-pin XLR male connector for unbalanced mono signals only. It does not convert to a balanced XLR signal.
What type of devices can I connect with this adaptor?
You can connect devices with a 6.3mm mono jack output (e.g., certain keyboards, microphones, or instruments) to devices with a 3-pin XLR male input (e.g., audio interfaces, mixers, or amplifiers expecting an unbalanced mono signal).
How do I clean the connectors?
Gently wipe the connectors with a clean, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a cotton swab lightly dampened with isopropyl alcohol, ensuring it dries completely before use.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the retailer or QTX documentation for specific warranty information, as warranty terms can vary.
Does the pack of 10 include individual packaging?
The product information states 'Polybag' for the package type, suggesting they are likely packed together in a single polybag rather than individually packaged.
Troubleshooting
No audio signal
Ensure the 6.3mm jack is fully inserted into the source and the XLR male connector is securely plugged into the destination. Verify that both the source and destination are set to receive unbalanced mono audio signals and that the volume levels are appropriate.
Hum or buzzing sound
This adaptor is for unbalanced mono signals. Hum may occur if connected to a balanced input without proper impedance matching or if there are ground loop issues in the audio chain. Try connecting to a different input or ensure all equipment shares a common ground point.
Intermittent audio connection
Check the connectors for any debris or damage. Ensure a firm connection at both ends. If the issue persists, try a different adaptor from the pack.
