Linking monitors to toneport

[axevictim]

Hi im about to buy some new monitors and just wondered how they linked to toneport is it a TRS cable from each monitor to analogue outs 1 and 2 on toneport the monitors im getting are tapco S5s by the way. Any help would be great thanks.

The Toneport UX1 uses unbalanced outs whereas the Toneport UX2 uses balanced outs. It's been my experience, that I get a better result with a UX1 using standard unbalanced 1/4" cables.

Use analog outs 1 and 2 on your Toneport, and if your monitors have 1/4" inputs you're all set. If they have XLR, then you'll need a 1/4" to XLR cable.

I'm using Tapco S8s and I have them plugged in to the standard 1/4" jack at the rear of the monitor and the 'Anolog Outs' on the UX2. Works great but I'm going to have a go at trying the XLR to 1/4" to see. Using the XLRs made a huge difference to the performance on the mic input.

It will probably have to be TRS 1/4s at the monitor otherwise you'd be running loZ to hiZ . I don't think it will make as huge a perfomance leap as the mic did.
