Y Cables

In the world of pro audio, Y cables are one of the most frequently-used cable types. These connectors get their name from the fact that their 3 ends resemble the letter "Y" (1 common end that splits into 2 ends on the other side). Y cables are often used for inputting and outputting stereo mixers and their length can range from 1 foot to 19 feet. In this catalog, you'll find that many big names in pro audio specialize in their own Y cable models, including Livewire, Pig Hog, Rapco Horizon and Bespeco. Make no mistake, if you're in the market for a Y cable, look no further than this section.

If you're still not sure where to begin your search, it's always a safe bet to start with a top-rated item then go from there. Need an example? Check out the Livewire 1/8" (TRS) - Dual 1/4" Y Cable. The superior wiring of this connector is obvious when you hear its quality; hums, buzzing and crackles are virtually non-existent. It's clearly made for serious musicians and is perfect for connecting CD players to cassette decks, computers to mixers and much more.

Another Y cable that deserves your attention is the Rapco Horizon 1F-2M Mono 1/4" Guitar Y Cable. As its name suggests, this connector is for guitarists who like to get experimental with their setup. In fact, with this cord, you can split your instrument's signal and send it to 2 amps to create more volume and improve your tone. This cable also comes in handy when you're laying down tracks and want to split your guitar preamp to 2 different recorders. No doubt, adventurous guitar players will love having this Rapco cable in their gear bag.

And those two Y cables are only a sample of what is waiting in this section, so try to spend a little time here and give each of your choices consideration. The fact that you're browsing this selection of Y cables is a good inkling that you know a thing or two about audio gear - and considering only the best brands are offered here, you're bound to find something that makes you excited about plugging in and turning up!
