Audio Adapter ShiverPeaks XLR female to 6.3 mm (1/4 inch) TRS jack BS55035, stereo coupling

ShiverPeaks BS55035 is an audio adapter that converts an XLR female connector to a 6.3 mm (1/4") TRS stereo jack. It provides a compact physical interface for routing balanced or stereo line-level signals between professional XLR-equipped gear and devices with 6.3 mm TRS inputs, such as instruments, mixers and amplifiers. The adapter is intended for use in stage, studio and live-sound patching where a direct XLR-to-TRS connection simplifies signal routing without additional cables or box-type converters.

Advantages

The adapter offers a compact, single-piece solution for interfacing XLR outputs to 6.3 mm TRS inputs while preserving signal polarity appropriate for balanced or stereo connections. Its metal housing and molded connector ends provide mechanical stability and reliable contact. By eliminating the need for separate cable assemblies or bulky signal converters, it reduces clutter and saves setup time during live performances and studio sessions.

Suitable for

• Connecting microphone or line-level XLR outputs to mixers or amplifiers with 6.3 mm TRS inputs
• Directly interfacing outboard preamps, DI boxes or stage snake outputs to instrument or line inputs
• Temporary patching in rehearsal rooms, live venues and recording studios

Key specifications

• Connector A: XLR female (3-pin) for balanced signal input
• Connector B: 6.3 mm (1/4") TRS stereo jack for balanced or stereo output
• Signal type: compatible with balanced line-level and stereo line signals
• Construction: metal shell with molded strain relief for mechanical durability
• Application: stage, studio and live-sound patching; temporary and permanent connections

How to use

Insert the XLR female end onto the corresponding XLR male output and push until it locks or seats securely. Plug the 6.3 mm TRS jack into the target instrument, amplifier or mixer input. Verify correct signal routing and levels on connected equipment before increasing output levels. For balanced signals, ensure proper pin assignment on the connected devices to maintain polarity and avoid phase issues.

Recommendations

Use the adapter for short, in-line connections and temporary patching. Avoid subjecting the adapter to excessive mechanical stress, moisture or continuous strain; when installing in permanent or high-traffic runs, use a dedicated cable or panel-mounted solution for improved longevity and strain relief.
