QUIK LOK EQLAD76 - Audio Adapter 2 Female Jacks to 1 Male Jack
The Quik Lok EQLAD76 (also known as AD/76) is a professional audio adapter designed to provide a versatile and highly reliable connection solution. This handy Y-splitter adapter duplicates a stereo audio signal, converting a single 6.3 mm stereo jack output into two identical outputs. Its robust construction and compact design make it an indispensable tool for musicians, sound engineers, DJs, and any audio enthusiast who needs to manage their connections efficiently and without loss of quality.
Made with high-quality materials to ensure clean, interference-free signal transmission, the EQLAD76 features a 6.3 mm TRS male (stereo) jack connector on one end and two 6.3 mm TRS female (stereo) jack connectors on the other. Its one-piece molded design ensures maximum durability and resistance to constant use in demanding environments such as recording studios, stages, or DJ booths.

Product benefits
The Quik Lok EQLAD76 adapter instantly simplifies complex audio setups. It allows musicians to share a monitor mix with another performer using two pairs of headphones from a single output. For sound engineers, it makes it easy to send a signal to two different destinations, such as a recording system and a monitor amplifier, simultaneously. Its plug-and-play design requires no additional configuration, offering a quick and effective solution to the most common connectivity problems.
Use cases
-
Practice and Rehearsal: Ideal for two musicians to listen to the same mix through two different headphones from an audio interface or amplifier with a single output.
-
Recording Studio: Perfect for duplicating the output of a preamp or interface and sending it to two different effects processors or mixing channels.
- Live Performances: Allows a DJ to easily send the signal from their mixer to two sound systems or booth monitors.
-
Sound Systems: Useful for splitting a line signal and sending it to two amplifiers or self-powered speakers in a distributed sound setup.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this adapter work with mono (TS) signals?
Yes, although it's designed for stereo (TRS) signals, it can also transmit a mono (TS) signal without any problems. The mono signal from the male connector will be duplicated on the two female outputs.
Will I lose sound quality by splitting the signal?
All passive signal splitters can introduce slight attenuation (volume reduction), but in most practical applications, this is negligible. The adapter is designed to maintain signal integrity as much as possible, without adding noise or audible distortion.
Are all three connectors 6.3 mm?
Yes, both the male connector and the two female connectors are the standard 6.3 mm (1/4 inch) jack size.
Is it a balanced adapter?
Because it's compatible with TRS connectors, it can pass a balanced signal, but splitting it in two changes the line impedance. For critical balanced audio applications over long distances, an active splitter is recommended. However, for most use cases, such as headphones or short connections, it works perfectly.
