Mascom International stocks the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable at KSh 440, brand new and sealed. A single 3.5mm plug goes into a car stereo or speaker AUX socket, and the cable splits into a Type-C plug and a Lightning plug at the phone end. It measures 1.2 metres, or 1200mm, in black nylon braid, and the box lists Hi-Fi stereo sound with full 3.5mm compatibility. The Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable comes from Amaya, a Chinese accessories maker. Buy it over the counter at our Old Mutual Building shop on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or have it delivered.
Built for households and drivers who juggle different phones, the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable ends the argument over whose cable is in the car. Dad's Infinix uses the Type-C plug; the daughter's iPhone 13 uses the Lightning plug. Both work with the same stereo, one phone at a time. Uber and Bolt drivers keep the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable in the console so a rider with either phone can play a playlist on the way to JKIA. Small offices in Upper Hill use it to feed a meeting-room speaker from whichever phone is presenting.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell separate Type-C and Lightning leads, Mascom International offers one braided cable that covers both, so there is less clutter in the glove box. Buyers throughout Kenya report that a split cable saves them hunting for the right lead when a passenger asks to play a song. At KSh 440 it costs less than buying the Amaya AUX-02 and a separate Lightning lead. Test the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable with your own phones at our store, or order it on WhatsApp with payment on arrival.
Common Questions About the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable
How much is the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable in Kenya?
The Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable costs KSh 440, brand new and sealed, at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That covers the 1.2-metre braided cable, a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects, and pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya. It is KSh 140 above the Amaya AUX-02 Type-C to 3.5mm Audio Cable, which has no Lightning plug, and KSh 40 below the Amaya AUX-05 3-in-1 Audio Cable, which adds a 3.5mm phone-end plug.
Should I pick the Amaya AUX-04 or the Amaya AUX-05 3-in-1 Audio Cable?
Pick the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable if every phone that rides in your car has either a Type-C or a Lightning port. The Amaya AUX-05 costs KSh 480 and adds a third 3.5mm plug at the phone end, for older phones and music players with a headphone jack. Both are 1.2 metres and nylon braided. Families with a mix of new Android phones and iPhones save KSh 40 with the AUX-04, while those keeping an older jack phone should take the AUX-05.
Can two phones play through the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable at once?
No, the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable is built for one phone at a time, even though it has two phone plugs. Plug in either the Type-C end or the Lightning end, and leave the other plug free. Plugging in two phones together is not supported, so expect patchy or no sound if you try. The two plugs exist so one cable fits whichever phone is in the car today, not so two people can play songs simultaneously.
Which iPhones work with the Lightning plug on the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable?
The Lightning plug on the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable fits iPhone 5 through iPhone 14, the models that charge through Lightning. iPhone 15 and later switched to USB-C, so they use the Type-C plug on the same cable instead. On the Android side, the Type-C plug suits phones that send audio over USB-C, which covers most recent Samsung, Xiaomi and Redmi, Tecno, Infinix and Oppo models. Bring your phone to Mascom International to test it first.
How does the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable cope with Kenyan driving conditions?
The Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable has a woven nylon jacket that stands up to the rubbing and bending of daily car use. Parked cars in Kisumu or Nairobi heat up quickly, so store the cable in the glove box rather than on the dashboard. The phone's charging port is busy while the cable plays, so charge before a long Nairobi to Nakuru drive. Dust from rough roads can settle in the AUX socket; a dry cotton bud clears crackle.
Who should buy the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable and who should skip it?
Buy the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable if your car or speaker has an AUX socket and the people using it carry a mix of Type-C phones and Lightning iPhones. Skip it if you only ever use one USB-C phone; the Amaya AUX-02 costs KSh 300 and is simpler. Skip it if your phone has a headphone jack, since the Amaya AUX-01 at KSh 200 suits it. Drivers with no AUX socket need an FM transmitter instead.
Will the spare plug on the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable get in the way?
The unused plug on the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable simply hangs beside the one in use, and most drivers barely notice it. Tuck it into the cup holder or phone holder edge so it does not swing into the gear lever or handbrake. Keep the spare plug off wet floor mats, because water and grit can dirty the contacts. When you switch phones, unplug the first fully before plugging in the second, and the stereo will pick up the new source.
Does the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable work with home speakers and hi-fi sets?
Yes, the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable works with any home speaker, soundbar, hi-fi set or amplifier that has a 3.5mm AUX input. At 1.2 metres it reaches from a coffee table to a speaker on a low shelf. A battery-powered speaker with an AUX socket keeps playing from your phone during KPLC outages, since the cable itself needs no power. Visitors with either an iPhone or an Android phone can play their own songs without Bluetooth pairing.
Technical Specifications
Core Function
- One 3.5mm plug splitting to Type-C and Lightning — feeds a single AUX socket from either kind of phone.
- Hi-Fi stereo signal — left and right channels stay separate for the full width of a recording.
- One phone at a time — use the Type-C or the Lightning end, never both together.
- Wired playback — no pairing, no Bluetooth delay, and video sound stays in step with the picture.
- All phone audio passes through — songs, podcasts, voice notes and map directions reach the speakers.
Phone Compatibility
- Lightning plug — fits iPhone 5 to iPhone 14, the iPhone models that use the Lightning port.
- Type-C plug — fits phones that output audio over USB-C, including iPhone 15 and later.
- Android brands — most recent Samsung, Xiaomi and Redmi, Tecno, Infinix and Oppo phones send audio over USB-C.
- AUX end — the 3.5mm plug goes into car stereos, speakers, soundbars and amplifiers with a standard socket.
- Box statement — the packaging lists full 3.5mm compatibility for the stereo end.
Build and Materials
- Nylon braided jacket — woven outer layer resists tangles and wear from daily handling in a busy car.
- 1.2 metres, 1200mm — enough slack to reach a phone in a holder, a cup holder or a passenger's hand.
- Black colour — matches most car interiors and black speakers without drawing attention.
- Split design — the cable divides near the phone end, so each plug moves freely.
- Coils compactly — fits a glove box, door pocket or laptop bag without a bulky reel.
Sharing Between Phones
- Family cars — one cable serves an Android phone and a Lightning iPhone without swapping leads.
- Ride-hailing — passengers with either phone type can play their own music on request.
- Office speakers — whoever is presenting can plug in, whatever phone they carry.
- Switching — unplug the first phone fully before connecting the second so the stereo picks up the new source.
- Fewer cables — replaces two separate leads, which means less clutter and less to lose.
Care and Handling
- Hold by the plug — pull the plug head, not the braid, to protect the joints at each end.
- Secure the spare plug — tuck the unused end away from the gear lever, handbrake and wet floor mats.
- Clean sockets — remove dust from the AUX port with a dry cotton bud if sound crackles.
- Avoid dashboard heat — keep the cable in the glove box when the car is parked in the sun.
- Charge beforehand — the phone's port is occupied during playback, so top up before long trips.
Inclusions and Support
- One Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable, brand new and sealed in Amaya retail packaging.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use.
- Free in-store test — staff will check both plugs with your phones before you pay.
- Pay-on-arrival delivery — inspect the cable at your door before paying, in any county.
- No software needed — no app, driver or charger is required to use the cable.

Warranty
Mascom International covers the Amaya AUX-04 2-in-1 Audio Cable with a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use, such as a plug that stops making contact or sound cutting out on one side.
