Pro Audio XLR Connectors

These 5 Core XLR connector pairs are built for audio professionals and enthusiasts who need reliable signal transfer in recording studios, live sound systems and stage setups. The zinc alloy housing and silver-plated pins deliver corrosion resistance and minimal signal loss. Each pair includes male and female 3-pin connectors for microphone cables and PA equipment.

Secure Locking Mechanism

The integrated locking ends prevent accidental disconnection during performances or sessions, ensuring uninterrupted audio transmission. This single feature decides whether the connector stays seated under movement and vibration on stage or in the studio. Without it, cables can pull free and break the signal path.

Low-Profile Thermal Behaviour

The compact 4x2x5 inch metal shell dissipates heat passively with no active cooling, so the connectors run silently and add negligible power draw to the signal chain. At 0.49 lb for the set, they impose no thermal load on adjacent gear and require no airflow consideration in rack or floor-box installations.

Questions about this item

What does the .49 lb weight mean when I am building a stage cable loom?

At just under half a pound for five pairs, the connectors add negligible mass to a multi-cable snake, keeping the loom light enough for quick rigging and easy transport.

How does the standard 3-pin XLR interface limit what I can connect?

The 3-pin layout carries balanced mono audio only, so each pair handles one microphone or line-level channel; it cannot pass stereo, digital protocols or phantom power switching beyond the standard pins.

What clearance do the 4x2x5 inch connectors need behind a rack panel?

Each connector occupies roughly a 4 by 2 inch footprint and extends 5 inches from the panel face, so allow at least that depth behind the rack rail for cable bend radius and the locking latch to engage fully.
