Q: 1. I'm getting a buzz with this cable connected directly from a microphone to an amp-- anyone else?

A: That is a balanced connector cable for LINE level signals, if you are using that cable to connect a microphone, it is not the correct cable. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/828155-REG/Hosa_Technology_HMIC_010HZ_HMIC_010HZ_Pro_Mic_Cable.html This is the correct cable for microphones.

Q: 2. I have a rode Na1-2 mic and was wondering if a XRL to 3.5 mm jack would let me use the mic with my Macbook pro? thanks!

A: You would want a female XLR end for the mic, so a XVM-101F, but it could technically work if your computer has a 3.5mm mic input. Best regards, Hosa support.

Q: 3. Does this work for recording line-in to a zoom h4n recorder?

A: Yes it should,

Q: 4. ... each TRS connecter in this cable??

A: Hi Jose, The two "Y" ends of this cable meet in the center. In the case of the 6-foot cable, they would meet roughly at 3 feet. This was a change we made after the product was released. That means models that were previously purchased may be different and have a shorter split. Thank you for considering Hosa for your connectivity needs. Best regards, Hosa Support Team

Q: 5. Is this a mono XLR or a 2 channel XLR cable?

A: Not sure. I ASSUMED 2 channel, but I didn't do anything to test that assumption.

Q: 6. My JBL audio speakers are separated 43 inches approx. What is the distance maximum between each XLR connecter in this cable??

A: About 36" apart.

Q: 7. Are these XLR Male connectors nickel, silver, or any plated?

A: These should be nickel plated.

Q: 8. A lot of these cables seem to short one of the signal pins to ground, which can cause issues or even damage output circuits. Is this the case here?

A: As our trusted rep from Hosa has mentioned, this is an unbalanced cable with pins 1 and 3 connecting to the sleeve while pin 2 connects to the tip. The Rean connectors used in its construction are pro quality and made by Neutrik. An unbalanced XLR to 1/4" cable like this one has a 1/4" TS connector which won't short the signal when used to connect to an unbalanced input. Avoid using balanced XLR to 1/4" TRS cables, which could cause issues when used to connect to an unbalanced input.

Q: 9. how long is the length of cable from the XLR connectors to where they meet?

A: the 6' cable splits in half (3') where the mini plug end breaks into the 2 xlrs

Q: 10. As to length: what is the spread-distance of the two XLRs from the Y-junction of the wires?

A: The split is not glued together, so, it's roughly half the length of the cable (7.5'). If you extended each line as far as it could go, you could get 15' between the left and the right xlr end. I ended up having to tape the split together to make the cable more manageable
