PROEL AT165 - Stereo Audio Adapter Mini 3.5mm Female to 6.3mm Male Jack in ABS
The Proel AT165 is an essential audio adapter for any sound setup, designed to offer a reliable, high-quality connection conversion solution. This adapter allows you to connect devices equipped with a standard 3.5 mm (1/8") mini-jack connector, such as consumer headphones, mobile phones, tablets, or MP3 players, to professional audio equipment or hi-fi systems that use 6.3 mm (1/4") jack inputs. Manufactured by Proel, a leading brand in the professional audio sector, this accessory stands out for its robust construction and its ability to maintain the integrity of the stereo signal without interference.
Unlike generic adapters that can introduce noise or intermittent connections over time, the AT165 is built with a high-strength ABS body. This material not only provides excellent durability against shocks and daily use, but also offers superior electrical insulation. Its compact and lightweight design makes it an indispensable accessory for musicians, sound engineers, DJs, and audiophiles who need immediate versatility in their workflow, ensuring you can always connect your favorite headphones to mixing consoles, audio interfaces, or amplifiers.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Does this adapter convert stereo signal to mono?
No, the Proel AT165 is a TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) adapter that keeps the stereo signal intact. If a stereo signal goes in, it comes out stereo.
-
Does it work for headphones with a microphone (TRRS)?
This adapter is designed for the TRS (3-pole) audio standard. If you connect a headset with a microphone (4-pole/TRRS), you will hear the audio perfectly, but the microphone function may not be transmitted depending on the receiving equipment. Its primary function is for listening.
-
Is ABS material durable?
Yes, ABS is an engineering thermoplastic known for its high impact resistance and hardness, making it far superior to the conventional plastics used in low-end adapters.
