Mmmmmm. Now seeing the picture. The cable is unbalanced. But we must see inside and check the pins....

My guess is that they did not split the "hot" connection from the TS connector and wire it to both of the two "hot" connections on the XLR connector.

I think DJKeys is correct, it is not a matter or cheap/expensive cables. There is more than one way of wiring the XLR to TS and TRS.

You guys were spot on!! It was the Cable!! I opened it up and there was a copper cable soldered between the white and blue wires. I cut the wire on both cords and now the problem is solved %100!
Thanks so much!!!

That copper cable must be soldered between the shield and the blue (pins 1 and 3) in some gear to avoid the loss of some dB.
Good to hear the problem is gone!
