mixer out to amp in cable

[IA76]

Hi

 

If I'm connecting from mixer main out L (XLR) to the amp in input on the amp(6.35mm jack) should it be a a mono or stereo jack?

 

Thanks

Depends on the amp. If it has balanced inputs, TRS. If it is unbalanced, either.

It's one of these amps http://www.inter-m.uk.com/pdfs/operation_m...a%20opmanls.pdf

 

It doesn't say whether the amp in is balanced or unbalanced.

Where are you wanting to take the output from the mixer into?

 

I can only see XLR in's on that amp

Input 12. It's on page 7 & 8 of the manual.

looking at the wiring diagrams in the manual, unbalanced.

1) since it's a PA amp of that sort and 2) based on the section of the block diagram I have outlined below, I'd say unbalanced.

The amp in jack on this mixer/amp is almost certainly unbalanced, so the simplest way to wire it would be to take the XLR end as 1,2 and 3, and then at the jack end, use a three circuit TRS plug. The only possible snag could be if the jack socket is only a two circuit type, and does not have the ring and sleeve linked. While you're making the cable up, solder in a short link inside the jack linking sleeve and ring, just in case.

Many thanks guys.
