Why Dual 1/4" TS Matters for Playback Setups
The XC-USBC2TS06 is designed to take audio from a USB-C device and feed 1/4" TS inputs on pro gear. That makes it a practical choice when your destination is built around 1/4" input paths on mixers, amplifiers, PA systems, powered speakers, or consoles and you need a direct, show-ready playback connection.
- Built for playback feeds: intros, walk-in music, backing tracks, presentation audio, and mobile content routing.
- Pro destination focus: intended for 1/4" TS input workflows on common event and production systems.
Integrated 16-bit / 44.1kHz DAC for Consistent USB-C Audio Conversion
The cable is specified with a 16-bit / 44.1kHz digital-to-analog conversion chip designed for accurate sound reproduction with minimal noise, full-frequency response, and no hum or distortion. This is especially valuable when system gain is high or the room is quiet and any noise becomes obvious.
- Playback clarity focus: built to support clean program material from phones, tablets, and laptops.
- Less troubleshooting: designed to reduce the common noise issues when integrating consumer devices into pro inputs.
Braided 6mm Jacket + Double Shielding for Real-World Interference Control
Stage and event environments are full of potential interference. The 6mm high-density braided jacket and double-layer shielding are specified to minimize interference while maintaining signal integrity through repeated routing changes, tight booth spaces, and busy cable paths.
- Shielding strategy: designed to help keep playback clean in dense production environments.
- Durability strategy: built for repeated handling and frequent re-patching.
Output-Only Directionality: What This Cable Is and Is Not
This cable is explicitly one-way: USB-C audio out to 1/4" TS inputs. It does not support recording back into the phone/tablet/computer and does not support microphone input into USB-C devices. That clarity prevents mismatches during load-in.
- Designed for: sending playback from USB-C devices to 1/4" TS inputs on pro equipment.
- Not designed for: recording, two-way transmission, or mic input into computers or smartphones.
How to Deploy ProX XC-USBC2TS06 in the Field
Use the XC-USBC2TS06 when you need dependable USB-C playback into 1/4" TS input workflows. Connect USB-C to your source device, then route the dual 1/4" TS male ends to the intended 1/4" TS inputs on your mixer, amplifier, powered speaker, PA system, or console.
- Gain stage like a pro: start with channel levels down, connect, then bring up to target to avoid surprises.
- Route intentionally: patch the dual 1/4" TS outputs to the inputs your system expects for playback routing.
- Keep the path clean: use sensible cable routing to take advantage of the specified shielding in high-interference environments.
- Coil for longevity: relaxed coils support the specified 20,000+ bend-cycle design over long gig seasons.
- Remember direction: output-only playback cable; not for recording or mic input into USB-C devices.
For fast event turns, the XC-USBC2TS06 is a clean way to move USB-C playback into 1/4" TS systems with dependable patching and minimal noise.
