Description of Hosa MIT-129 1/4-inch TS to XLR3M Impedance Converter

This adaptor is designed to match 50K output impedance to 200R input impedance. It is ideal for connecting a hi-Z instrument to a microphone input. Maximizes signal fidelity when using impedance mismatched gear. Minimizes high frequency and level loss caused by signal reflections. Eliminates noise and hum caused by an impedance mismatch. Connector(s): 1/4 in TS to XLR3M.

Mandatory for sound systems, stops hum and feedback.

You must buy this to change from low impedance to low impedance XLR or vice versa, otherwise you will have hum and feedback from your mics, especially on your stage monitors.

Pros
  • Maximizes signal fidelity when using equipment with unmatched impedance
Cons
  • No instructions

Terrible quality and worst customer service

I ordered a pair of adapters for a charity project. They arrived in the right order and I put them aside until I got everything connected. It's been a little over 30 days since I took out the package and found that they hadn't completed the assembly by securing the top to the bottom (looks like they crimped badly or the tolerance wasn't checked complied with). So when I asked for assistance they didn't even give me an address to ship back to nor an RMA number which apparently was needed. Save…

Pros
  • Eliminates noise and hum caused by impedance mismatch
Cons
  • No form required

Ideal for audio and video accessories

I'm a radio amateur using a rack of external audio processing equipment. I have a nice balanced line mic for my mixer (RE27), but I also wanted to try an old electret mic. I first tried to find a quick fix for a balanced to unbalanced connection by shorting the negative terminal to ground or ground. the microphone worked, but with a 120 Hz hum even with the shielded cable. I bought this handy transformer to convert unbalanced to balanced and the hum is gone and with the right EQ the old mic…

Pros
  • Minimizes high frequency and level losses from signal reflections
Cons
  • Big and bulky
