Frequently Asked Questions

Is this cable balanced?

Yes. Although described as "stereo", a cable with 6.3 mm TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) jack connectors like this one can carry a balanced mono signal, which is ideal for reducing noise in long-distance connections between professional equipment such as interfaces and monitors.

Can I use it to connect my electric guitar to an amplifier?

It will technically work, but it's not ideal. Electric guitars typically use an unbalanced mono signal and require a mono cable (TS or Tip-Sleeve). Using a stereo cable (TRS) like this offers no benefit and, in some specific circuits, might not work correctly. A standard mono cable (TS) is recommended for this application.

What is the difference between this stereo cable (TRS) and a mono cable (TS)?

The difference lies in the connector. A mono connector (TS) has two contacts: the tip for the signal and the sleeve for ground. A stereo connector (TRS) has three contacts: the tip for the left channel, the ring for the right channel, and the sleeve for ground. This three-contact configuration is also what allows for sending a balanced mono signal.
