    Also make sure that the TRS cable is carrying a balanced signal and not a Left and Right unbalanced signal from a headphone jack

    Very much enjoying this little nuggets of info! Keep up the great work!

    THOUGH there's a benefit with XLR in that the contacts all connect simultaneously with no worry about mismatching when sliding a cable in or out. When you pull a TS/TRS plug out, different poles may be in contact during that; not so with XLR, which makes it safer for phantom power (and avoid some pops and cracks). Phantom power with TRS... well, it's electrically doable, but I wouldn't.

    What about connection locking method? My understanding is XLR has better locking than TRS.

    • @TomCee53
      @TomCee53 Před rokem

      There is a locking connector available, but it's not as robust as xlr. The biggest drawback to trs is that it's a single contact point, which can be subject to dirt, corrosion, or wear in the spring connection. The trs is a sleeve type contact.

    Does it mean I wouldn't need a DI Box if I'm running a TRS cable from my guitar to the console or stage box that is a little distant from my position?

    TS = uncircumcised
    TRS = circumcised

    I'm trying to take a main out l and r channels with a splitter and combine them into a trs 3.5mm cable for PC. Why can I find one

  • @phatcatology
    @phatcatology Před rokem

    There is a small difference though. The difference is that phantom power will not go through the quarter inch yrs cable. I actually don’t know why?

      Phantom power will go through TRS.

    • @phatcatology
      @phatcatology Před rokem +1

      I do understand that you are talking about the connection between speakers. But if an xlr cable is the same as trs, I just wonder why +48 won’t go through a xlr female to 1/4” trs. (Condenser Mic) Just wondering why that is ?

    • @AudioUniversity
      @AudioUniversity  Před rokem +2

      Phantom power will go through a XLR-F to 1/4” TRS cable. Just be careful to turn off phantom power while connecting and disconnecting the TRS end because this could cause a momentary short in the connection.

      if you think about it people who want to know the answer to this question are gonna search which cable is better into the search bar, making it more likely to reach those people with a title like this

    what about phantom power?

    • @AudioUniversity
      @AudioUniversity  Před rokem

      They can both pass phantom power. But avoid disconnecting or connecting a TRS while phantom power is engaged, as it can create a short that may cause damage.
