🎧 20CM 4 Pin XLR to 4.4mm Female Balanced Audio Headphone Adapter Cable – Silver Plated, 5 Pole Review

This product allowed me to connect my new Sony MDRZ1R headphones to my 4-pin XLR headphone amp. Simple solution. I've never used balanced 3.5mm inputs. The build quality is excellent, the connection is very strong. Great value for money at a very fair price!

For people who want to buy quality Sennheiser headphones and use them with balanced amplifiers, this is a much cheaper way to buy new balanced XLR cables. High quality Sennheiser cans usually come with 4.4mm balanced cables, so these expensive cables can be used with most balanced amplifiers.

As I have several 4.4mm headphone cables I bought 3 different adapters with the same plugs to use my existing headphone cables with a headphone amp. which has 4-pin XLR outputs. This adapter is my favorite of the three. My headphone cords close snugly, but not too tight. The extra length is a plus, and this adapter seems to have the cleanest sound of the three adapters, although the other, less expensive, Youkamoo adapter is almost as good.

I think this is a low volume product. Very few need to upgrade from 4-pin XLR to 4.4mm Pentacon. It's a niche within a niche. So if I can get a 2.5mm to 1/4" adapter kit for $10, it's $25. The markup is silly, but the adapter allows me to connect balanced headphones to a balanced amp. Although this is not very good. Value for money, it's better than making your own cable and possibly burning your fingers with a soldering iron (I'm half blind). I will say that the cable is very rigid but…
