David,

Go to www.guitarcenter.com and do a search on transformer. They have some nice in-line 
transformers that go up/down or down/up with XLR and 1/4 connectors. Looks like they start 
at $11.99. Probably lots of other sources for things like that. There used to be a company 
called ORA Electronics that had all kinds of adapters/converters.etc. I don't think they are 
still around but I could be wrong (its happened <g>).
