Hawk Sxsg010 Trs Male To Xlr Male Cable – 3 Meter

Hawk SXSG010 Gold Series TRS to XLR Cable — Balanced Signal. No Compromises.

The Hawk SXSG010 is a professional-grade balanced interconnect cable engineered for studio monitors, live sound systems, and recording setups where signal integrity and noise rejection are non-negotiable. At 3 metres, it gives you the reach for professional routing without excess cable creating clutter.

Built for Balanced Audio Signal Paths That Actually Perform

A cable seems like a simple purchase until you hear the difference between a signal that arrives intact and one that picks up interference along the way. The SXSG010’s oxygen-free copper conductors and OFC spiral shielding ensure the signal that leaves your mixer or interface is the exact signal that arrives at your monitor — without RF or EMI artefacts.

What It Is

The Hawk SXSG010 is a 3-metre balanced audio cable featuring a 6.35mm (1/4″) TRS male connector on one end and an XLR male connector on the other. Part of Hawk’s Gold Series professional cable range, it uses oxygen-free copper conductors with OFC spiral shielding and gold-plated connector contacts for consistent, corrosion-free performance over time.

Key Features

• Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) Conductors — Purer copper with lower resistance and superior signal transmission compared to standard copper cables, preserving audio quality across the cable’s length.
• OFC Spiral Shield — Effective rejection of electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) keeps noise out of your signal chain — essential in environments with multiple electronic devices.
• Gold-Plated Contacts — Corrosion-resistant gold contacts maintain low contact resistance over years of connection and disconnection cycles, avoiding the signal degradation caused by oxidised connections.
• Balanced Signal Path — The TRS-to-XLR configuration carries a balanced signal, providing inherent common-mode noise rejection ideal for long cable runs and environments with electrical interference.
• Cable Tie Included — A practical addition for keeping cables organised and stored properly between uses.
• 1-Year Manufacturing Warranty — Hawk stands behind the quality of the SXSG010 with a full year of warranty coverage against defects.

Why the SXSG010 Stands Out

Budget cables cut corners on shielding and conductor purity, which shows up as noise floors that are higher than they should be. The SXSG010 Gold Series uses the same construction principles as cables costing significantly more — OFC conductors, spiral shielding, and gold-plated contacts — at a price that makes it practical to equip an entire studio setup without compromising quality at any connection.

Perfect For

• Studio producers and engineers — connecting audio interfaces or mixers to studio monitors via balanced TRS-to-XLR routing.
• Live sound engineers — routing balanced signals from stage boxes or amps to active speaker cabinets reliably under stage conditions.
• Home studio builders — who want professional-grade interconnects to complete an otherwise high-quality monitoring chain.

Best Suited For

Ideal for connecting audio interfaces, mixing consoles, or amplifiers with TRS outputs to active monitors or passive speakers with XLR inputs in studio, broadcast, and live sound environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between a balanced and unbalanced cable?
A: A balanced cable (like this TRS-to-XLR) carries the signal on two conductors plus a shield. Any noise picked up along the cable is cancelled out at the receiving end — a process called common-mode rejection — leaving only the original signal.

Q: Will this work for connecting a guitar to a mixer?
A: This cable is designed for line-level balanced connections (e.g., interface to monitor). For guitar to mixer connections, an instrument-level DI box is recommended.

Q: Is a 5-metre version available?
A: Yes. The Hawk SXSG016 is the 5-metre variant in the same Gold Series line.
