Well if you have TRS (balanced 1/4") then get TRS to XLR Male cables. If you have TS (unbalanced 1/4") then get TS to RCA Male cables. Along those lines, this is one area where you want GREAT quality cabling... you can lose a lot of definition in that short little run.
Thank you,

Thanks Brad. I was just curious.
I assume from your response that high-quality "conversion" cables are just fine for this purpose.
The Adams are cheaper than I'd imagined all along.
Unless something with more bang for the buck comes along in the interim, I'll be purchasing a pair next year, thanks mainly to your persistence in declaring them kosher.
How right, it seems, you were/are.
