I do not have xlr out or inputs on the equipment.I have used adaptors many times in the past with no problems.The noise is not just lost signal or sound degradation.It is a loud hush noise not a hum.would anyone know whether I could cut of the XLR and replace them with wbt Rca without serious degradation and will that eliminate the noise.Or should I just get rid of them?
noise problem with cable
I have just purchased a 30ft IC,a MIT cvt proline with balanced (xlr)connectors.When I connect them using cheater plugs XLR to RCA from my Cello Palette equalizer to the meridian 861 processor I get a loud hash like noise.Any idea what is going on ,when I use a rca terminated ICs I have no problem.
