OQAN QABLP - Professional Audio Cable XLR Female to Mono Jack 5m
The OQAN QABLP is an audio cable designed to provide a reliable, high-quality connection for a wide range of audio applications. Measuring 5 meters in length, this cable features a female XLR connector on one end and a 6.35 mm TS (mono) jack on the other. Its robust construction and high-quality components ensure clean, interference-free signal transmission, making it an essential tool for musicians, sound engineers, and discerning audiophiles alike.
This type of cable is especially useful for connecting the line output of a mixing console, preamp, or audio interface directly to the input of an instrument amplifier, stage monitor, or any device that requires an unbalanced signal. The quality of its connectors ensures a secure and durable physical connection, minimizing the risk of accidental disconnections and signal loss during live performances or in the studio.

Benefits for Musicians and Sound Technicians
The OQAN QABLP simplifies audio connections, enabling quick and efficient equipment setup. For the musician on stage, this means less time worrying about cables and more time focusing on the performance. For the sound engineer, it's a reliable solution for sending line-level signals to monitors or amplifiers, ensuring that audio quality remains uncompromised. Its robust construction makes it a smart investment—a workhorse cable that will withstand the demands of the professional environment.
Use Cases
- Connecting the line output of a mixing console to a self-powered stage monitor.
- Sending the signal from a microphone preamp directly to a guitar or bass amplifier.
- Connecting synthesizers, keyboards or drum machines to a line input of an amplifier or mixer.
- Used in home studios to connect audio interfaces with XLR outputs to equipment with Jack inputs.
- Ideal for any situation that requires adapting an XLR line level output to an unbalanced Jack input.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cable balanced or unbalanced?
This is an unbalanced cable. It connects an XLR source to a Mono Jack (TS) input, which by definition creates an unbalanced signal path, suitable for short distances and line-level signals.
Can I connect a microphone directly to a guitar amplifier with this cable?
Technically, it's possible, but not ideal. Microphones typically deliver a very low-level signal (mic level) that requires a preamp to boost it to line level. Most guitar amplifier inputs expect an instrument-level signal. The result could be very low volume and poor sound quality.
What is the difference between a Mono Jack (TS) and a Stereo Jack (TRS) connector?
A mono jack connector (tip-sleeve) has two contacts and transmits a single audio signal, making it unbalanced. A stereo connector (tip-ring-sleeve) has three contacts and can transmit two signals (stereo) or a single balanced signal.
