RCA to XLR - Cable adapter?


I've got some of the one piece metal change over adapter that go from RCA to XLR in, and out's.

None are male RCA however and that's what the need is now.

To place a bit less strain (as RCA jacks have less mass), I'm thinking to get adapters that have quite a short male RCA cable on the RCA end with the male balanced out end opposite it. Male RCA to male XLR. Short cable on the RCA end.

Anyone ever see RCA - XLR adapter/cable with short cables on the RCA side?

Where or who makes 'em?

My new pre is all SE... the amp is only XLR. and yes, I got the thing about using one of my preexisting adapters on the amp and then whatever RCA cable thereafter. No prob. I've got an almost new Syn Res Ref xlr cable too and hate to have to off it right away. Adapters such as I'm asking for would be immense help and save big bucks right now though.

Thanks for the help, always.

You can order something like this from Bluejeans cable. I had a 1 ft set made to run from my SE DAC to XLR buffer unit..it works without a hitch.

Sorry Jim maybe I didn't read over your quest close enough. It would be better IMHO, to just use a SE to XLR interconnect. The BJCs won't cost more than $40. I would eliminate all unneeded connections if possible. Trying to use the Resolution Refs would most likely degrade the sound with all the extra connections...just MHO.
