You need to make sure impedance matches. If the line out is a balance mono
out, you should be fine. If the cable run is short, you can do this with a
regular ts or trs ¼ inch cable. The problem with running it to xlr is that
those are usually set for low line mic pickup/input, and if you feed it a
high level or line level output, it might distort the sound, or in worst
case, damage your pre-amp depending on the output level/volume.

Subject: [ddots-l] Connecting two interfaces, cable doubt
Hi folks,
If I'm not missing anything should be ok to use a cable that I have around,
it has got:
male stereo Jack to balanced XLR ,
And my aim is: I want to direct out from Avid 11rack mono line out, female
jack, and using the refered above cable I want to direct the sound to one of
my XLR MAudio Profire 2626 inputs.
Well I know that since the male jack is stereo it will only send the left
side right ? the source is a mono line out though !
Well, the doubt is: is it possible to lose sound quality?
or it's fine ?
