Point Source Audio XAT Series8 X-Connector for Audio-Technica Wireless

The Point Source Audio XAT is a purpose-built adapter cable designed for production professionals who use Series8 microphones with Audio-Technica wireless transmitter systems. It bridges the proprietary X-Connector system to the 4-pin Hirose cW-Style connector found on compatible Audio-Technica bodypack transmitters, enabling clean, reliable signal transfer without modifying existing mic or transmitter hardware.

For touring engineers, broadcast technicians, and theater sound designers who have invested in Series8 miniature microphones, the XAT eliminates the need for secondary mic purchases when switching transmitter platforms. Its interchangeable design is central to the Series8 ecosystem, where a single microphone element can be re-terminated for different wireless brands simply by swapping the adapter cable — reducing kit complexity and replacement costs in multi-transmitter deployments.

The compact form factor keeps the connection low-profile on talent, making it well suited for theatrical, broadcast, and corporate AV applications where cable routing and discretion are priorities.
