If you have a 3.5mm mini stereo cable and you need to connect it into a 1/4 inch jack use this adapter to convert the size instead of buying an entirely new cable.
Both the 3.5mm female and the 1/4 inch stereo male ends have gold-plated plugs. The soldering points have over-molded polymer for added durability and the adapter is fully shielded.
The Compression Springs
No more loud pops. No more static. Bad connection days are over. The compression springs on the 24-karat 1/4 inch jack provide a secure connection by providing maximum signal transfer. These springs compress as you insert the plug into the jack, giving it a secure connection that prevents static caused from slight cable movement with in the jack.
