3.5mm Stereo Aux Cable – 3 Metres, Male to Male Shielded Audio Lead
A straight 3.5 mm stereo audio lead with a standard 3-pole TRS plug at each end, in a genuinely useful 3 metre length. Most aux cables sold are a metre or less, which is fine on a desk and useless anywhere else – this one reaches from a back seat to the dash, from a laptop to a stereo across the room, or from a TV to an amp in a rack.
Check compatibility
It will not fit 6.35 mm (quarter-inch) sockets without a separate adapter.

Please read before buying
This is a passive stereo audio lead, so a few things are worth stating plainly:
- It is not a microphone or headset lead. Headsets that carry a mic use a 4-pole TRRS plug; this is a 3-pole stereo TRS cable and will not pass microphone audio.
- It is not an amplifier – it carries a line or headphone level signal and does not boost it.
Within that, it is simply a long, well-made aux lead that does the job without fuss.
Not sure this is the right lead? This is the 3 metre version of our 3.5mm male to male aux cable. Shorter runs are covered by the 1.2m lead and long ones by the 10m lead. If you are extending an existing cable rather than replacing it, you want the male-to-female 3.5mm extension. For RCA inputs at the far end, use the 3.5mm to 2x RCA cable.
Check these alternatives
Extending headphones or a lead you already own? Choose our 3 m male-to-female stereo aux extension instead. This is an alternative to replacing the lead; it does not carry a headset microphone.
