Neutrik XLR to RCA Adapters

The quesiton of where to purchase XLR to RCA adpaters has popped up more than once on Audigon. The usual resposnes direct folks towards products from BAT, Rowlans, PAD, etc, which are good but expensive. Well (and perhaps news only to me), Neutrik makes these adapters as well! The catalog numbers for the more common XLR to female RCA jacks are NA2MPMF (male XLR) and NA2FPMF (femele XLT). The cost? Theoretically about $ 17 each *vs, e.g., $ 115 a pair for the PAD version). The catch? No one seems to stock them!. I found a website in Canada that had ONE femele to female, and being a bulk distributor required me to purchase a $ 50 "license" to buy anything from them - pretty useless! So..the question is ..Does anyone know who might carry these in the US????

Thanks for the info guys. I look forward to hearing about Alexc's comparison. I do need some, but I don't want to get them if they are crappy...Duh!

Neutrik makes some of the best connectors on the market. Many of them are used by high profile cable companies. I order mine from Full Compus. They should carry the item you are searching for.

Alexc- are using the adaptors on a BAT pre? I have been feeding my CD source to my vk3i thru the single-ended inputs and have been contemplating getting adaptors as my CAL CL-10 does not have balanced analog out. If you or anyone else has thoughts on that, would appreciate it. BTW, my DNA 0.5 does not have balanced inputs, so would have to reconvert at the amp end. Any comments appreciated.

Check www.markertek.com to purchase them. I have bought a couple pair from them and they work great .They are probably in stock and they carry Canare digital cables among other cables and useful products for the hobby.They cater to the pro market so things are priced realistically.
