Hosa GXM-133 GXM133 RCA to 3-Pin XLR Adapter

RCA to XLR Adapter for Audio Signal Conversion

This adapter is designed to convert an unbalanced RCA signal to a balanced-style XLR male connection, allowing compatibility between consumer audio devices and professional audio equipment. It provides a simple and reliable solution for integrating mixed-format audio systems without additional cabling or converters.

Reliable Interface Between Consumer and Pro Audio Gear

The adapter allows RCA-equipped devices such as DVD players, mixers, or playback sources to connect directly to XLR inputs found on mixers, audio interfaces, and PA systems. This makes it useful in studios, live sound setups, and installed audio environments where format mismatches are common.

Correct Signal and Ground Wiring Configuration

The internal wiring routes the RCA center conductor to XLR pin 2 for signal transfer, while XLR pins 1 and 3 are tied together and connected to the RCA ground. This configuration ensures proper signal flow while minimizing potential wiring errors when interfacing unbalanced and balanced connections.

Compact Design for Tight Spaces and Portable Rigs

Its small, solid form factor allows the adapter to be used in dense rack setups, behind mixers, or in portable audio kits without adding unnecessary cable length. This makes it a practical tool for technicians who need fast, clean signal adaptation on the fly.

Durable Construction for Repeated Use

Built for frequent plugging and unplugging, the adapter is suited for regular use in production environments. Its rugged design supports dependable performance in studios, rehearsal spaces, and live venues where reliability is critical.

Useful for Live Sound, Studio, and Installed Systems

Common applications include connecting playback devices to mixers, routing consumer-level audio into PA systems, and adapting signal paths in broadcast or AV installations. It serves as a straightforward solution for bridging different audio connector standards.
