GLS Audio XLR Male Plugs Connectors XLR-M Plug - Pack of 20

I have purchased eight male/female pairs of these XLR connectors to repair audio cables at our church. So far I have been very impressed with their quality. They assemble quickly and easily without tools. The pins and sockets take solder very well without the surrounding plastic melting. The cable clamp assembly is well designed and firmly grasps the cable. The rubber boot the cable passes through into the connector seals well against the cable. To top things off, the price decreased by 50% between my two purchases. They were a bargain at $20 for four pairs of connectors. This most recent purchase was an even better deal at $10 for four pairs. I plan to purchase more of these XLR connectors in the future.

I am not a “pro” audio technician. I’m just a decent handy guy that always debugs and repairs the audio equipment at the churches we attend. I just went through a major upgrade / revamp project on our sound system, and purchased these xlr connectors (male and female) for the work. I was very pleased with the quality of the connectors. Soldering was as easy as it gets with no “meltdown” issues, and I like the way the connector assembles with the integral strain relief. Nice product at a nice price point.

Ease of Use: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I found these XLR connectors to be incredibly easy to work with. The assembly process was smooth and straightforward, making them a great choice for both beginners and experienced users. Soldering: ⭐⭐⭐ While the overall experience was positive, I did encounter a minor inconvenience during soldering. The terminals required drilling to facilitate the process, which added an extra step. However, once the holes were drilled, soldering was relatively easy. Sound Quality: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The sound quality of these connectors is exceptional. Despite their appearance suggesting Nickel plating, the audio performance is reminiscent of pure Adamantium. The signal transmission is perfectly cromulent, and free from any noticeable distortion. Durability: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The connectors feel robust and well-built. The materials used seem to be of high quality, promising excellent durability and longevity. Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ These XLR audio connectors offer a fantastic combination of ease of use, excellent sound quality, and impressive durability. The minor inconvenience of drilling holes for soldering is easily outweighed by their overall performance. If you're looking for reliable and high-performing XLR connectors, these are definitely worth considering.

Well made, inexpensive XLR-3M replacement plug for cable ends. What's not to like? Highly recommended!

They were cheap and did the job correctly. I needed to make some extra cable for my school and buying premade cable is to expensive for our budget. Once I learned how to solder they were super easy to put together. The only thing I dont like is that screwing the boot on the male end is a little bit of work and requires a few trys. I would recommend their mic cord since it it noise free and great quality and very cheap to.

I used it for a basement audio system project. Soldering was easy. Pins are marked well. YouTube and internet provided enough instruction on how to make my own microphone cable. I have used 8 of them so far. They all are working well. They did not melt or deform during soldering. It was easier than I thought. It has a strain relief clamp inside which holds the microphone cable (I used GLS brand mic cable) securely. Cap on the back also went on nice and tight. Feel good quality and durable. It has been only 1 week so far after installation. Will update the review if I discover any issues.

(Marcus typing.) I've been using one of these to tap my Pride Jazzy power wheelchair's battery (through the charge port) with a 24Vdc-to-5Vdc buck converter to charge my micro USB-powered devices on the run. Of course you must BE VERY CAUTIOUS with medical equipment. Check and double-check voltages, polarity, integrity of wiring (make sure a short is impossible!) etc. Indeed, I bricked one Kindle myself when I crushed the converter on a door frame (my fault). In fact, don't do it at all. Forget I mentioned the idea. But if you were stupid enough to try it and your chair/scooter uses this kind of plug, these do the job perfectly. Would probably work to (CAUTIOUSLY) replace a bad charger plug, too.

I've soldered cheap XLR plugs and Neutrik plugs and everything in between. These aren't as high quality as the Neutrik ends, but they're closer than most of the budget plugs I've used. The main thing about them is that the socket is made of a high quality plastic that doesn't melt when you heat it for soldering. That's usually where the ultra-cheap plugs fail. These plugs also feature similar strain relief and plug design to neutrik ends. They have become my go-to plug for non-critical XLR repairs.
