Hosa CMP-305 Interconnect Cable - 3.5mm TS Male to 1/4-inch TS Male - 5 foot

Sounds great. Still works.

I used this to wire up a mandolin to my PA. The mandolin had an old Barcus Berry pickup that accepts a 3.5mm (1/8 inch?) mono plug. This cable plugs into the Barcus Berry at one end and into my instrument amp (standard 1/4" or "guitar cord" jack) on the other end. The cable feels solid and substantial while still having adequate flexibility for on-stage use. The plugs click and hold securely in the equipment jacks.The connectors are molded onto the cable and include adequate strain relief so the cable won't get kinked. I think this will work for extended use.The next step up for me (because I'm handy) would be to manufacture my own, with all-metal plugs on the ends, soldering the plugs on by myself and making sure to use enough heat-shrink tubing to avoid kinks and relieve strain. But given the reasonable price of this cable, if it's critical that it not fail during a gig, I'd advise you just buy an extra as a spare!

Worked perfectly for mono connections, seem to be well built and will be durable for years to come most likely.

I tried a stereo 1/4" TRS to 1/8" TRS Cable first. I purchased it before this cable for a different application at home. It's not a cheap cable, but there was some 60 cycle him and a slight phase-shift between left and right channel. (Late model 32 channel PreSonus sound board.)That's when I ordered this cable, to see if it could get rid of the hum. This cable cured the hum problem to an inaudible level with a high-level source (barely no clipping) and also with the source paused.The Church application is multiple sources into the PreSonus sound board for typical mixing, then a collective, post-faders output into a distribution amplifier (DA), with one of the DA 1/4" outputs sent to a digital audio mp3 recorder (DAR), where a single out goes to left-channel in the DAR.Like I said previously, this cable doesn't add any audible hum to the DAR recording, so it's perfect for our use. Both vocal and music sound great, with no audible coloring or alteration to the sound from the DA.Highly recommended for any similar use!

Been buying Hosa cables for a few years now. Never had a problem or malfunction, price always good. They're decent cables

Plugged it in and works great!

I got this cable to replace a broken cable on my Yamaha E-Kit, and it worked fantastic. It feels very high quality and I've had no problems with it whatsoever.

Best for tape recorder singing music on amp with record plug output.
