I have access to a pair of mics that run out of a single stereo 1/8 inch male connector.
I want to run those mics into my XLR L and R mic inputs on my UA-5.
What's the best way to do it, sound wise?
I have a barrell on a y-splitter that ends in L and R female 1/8 inch, then I could buy a couple 1/8 inch male to XLR male cables and do it that way. I'm just wondering if there's a better way?
Thanks!

i think micsupply has the female 1/8" > dual XLR
contact Ed at KindKables.com, he can help you out for sure!

which mics??

Unfortunately, I don't know what kind of mics because my buddy who's loaning them doesn't even know and I haven't seen them yet. I only know that they're cards of some sort. :(
They're just for learning until I can buy my own.

If the mics are wired to an 1/8", then they won't need pantom power. You could run them right into the rca in on the back of the ua-5. Much less cable/adapter needed.

I've been informed that the mics in question are AT slimline cards, SP-CMC-8.
Cheapies, but they do pick up sound ;)

That do a lot better than just 'pick up sound'. Think you'd be surprised.
