You could get a plug convertor but I'd suggest just getting some new cables.

Without checking the units you're looking at, I'd guess the outputs are TRS ( Tip, Ring,Shield ) jacks. Which for most purposes are identical to an XLR.

From a manufacturer's point of view TRS jacks take up less space on the panel and offer the same performance electronically.

So to summarise I'd suggest, after the appropriate research, TRS to XLR cables.
