Custom Cables 6-Channel Audio Snake Made from CBI BW-MPA-6 & Pro Connectors (1/4" TRS to 1/4" TRS)

Custom CBI BW-MPA-6 6-Channel TRS-to-TRS Audio Snake

Keep six balanced analog audio connections together in one organized cable run. Performance Audio custom builds this snake using CBI BW-MPA-6 audio snake cable and professional 1/4-inch TRS connectors for connections between compatible mixers, audio interfaces, processors, patchbays, and other balanced audio equipment.

Built for Your Connections

• CBI BW-MPA-6 6-channel audio snake cable.
• Six separate 1/4-inch TRS-to-TRS paths for compatible balanced mono analog audio connections.
• Professional connector options available through the build configuration.
• Custom-built finished assembly, not unterminated bulk snake cable.
• Custom labeling and finishing options, with channel color coding available to discuss for your build.
• Lifetime warranty.

Six Separate Balanced Mono Paths

Each channel connects one compatible balanced mono output to one balanced mono input. Use two channels for a left/right stereo line-level connection; six channels can organize three stereo pairs or six independent mono connections. Assign each channel to its own source and destination.

The paths remain separate. This snake does not mix, sum, split, amplify, or convert signals, and it does not provide transformer isolation. Balanced operation requires compatible balanced equipment and wiring throughout the connection.

TRS Connector Fit Is Not Signal Compatibility

A 1/4-inch TRS socket can serve balanced mono audio, stereo headphones, or an insert send/return connection. This listing is for a balanced analog audio snake, not a stereo headphone splitter or an insert breakout. Check the function and wiring of every socket rather than assuming compatibility because the plugs fit.

Match source output levels to destination input requirements. For connections involving unbalanced equipment, confirm the appropriate wiring with the equipment manufacturer and our custom cable specialists; a TRS connector alone does not make an unbalanced device balanced. Do not assume suitability for digital audio, control signals, or speaker-level power. Never use this snake between a power amplifier's speaker outputs and passive speakers.

Plan Length and Breakout Reach

Measure the full routing path with room for bends, service slack, and access behind equipment. Check the spacing of all six sockets at both ends and allow enough breakout reach to connect them without pulling on the plugs, especially when patching across several devices.

Confirm clearance around recessed or closely spaced sockets and any required connector orientation. Discuss special breakout lengths, channel mapping, or wiring requirements with our custom cable specialists before the build.

Custom Labels and Channel Identification

Label channels by number, left and right, connected equipment, or destination to simplify setup and troubleshooting. Ask about channel color-coding options and provide your preferred label text and channel assignments when discussing the configuration. Keep a record of each channel's source and destination.

Installation and Handling

Support the main cable and breakouts so equipment sockets do not carry the cable's weight. Avoid tight bends, pinching, and tension at breakout points. Leave enough access for connection and removal, and disconnect by the connector body rather than pulling on the cable. Mute the relevant channels before patching and check every channel's routing and operation before putting the system into service.

Customization Help

If the website's configuration options do not cover your needs, call or email Performance Audio's custom cable specialists. Provide your equipment models, signal application, cable length, breakout reach, connector-clearance needs, and any special mapping, labeling, finishing, or wiring requests so we can confirm the build details. Confirm pricing and the build timeline before ordering if you have a deadline.
