Members hamsack Posted March 14, 2009 Members Share Posted March 14, 2009 What cable should be used for signal from amp to snake/board? Also is it good or at least acceptable to use mic xlr cables for hooking up a crossover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mtmra70 Posted March 14, 2009 Members Share Posted March 14, 2009 You have two types of signals, balanced and unbalanced. Balanced should be used if at all possible for any lengthy runs. There really isnt any difference between a "mic" balanced cable and a "equipment" balanced cable. Just usually a little better shielding or outside covering on some mic cables.

Members agedhorse Posted March 15, 2009 Members Share Posted March 15, 2009 Stop, hold it and don't try anything yet. Is this the OUTPUT from the amplifier to the speakers or the INPUT to the amplifier from the mixer or active bcrossover???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
