Hey,

NOOB ALERT NOOB ALERT

I am currently waiting for a Tascam 2488 and Tannoy reveal 5a active monitors which I have placed on order but, it only just occured to me "what the hell am I going to connect these with?? I checked the specs for each piece of equipment which are:

The Mixer has balanced trs monitor outs and

The reveals have balanced xlr/jack combination ins.

Will trs to xlr give a better connection than trs to jack? ( I'm guessing jack means trs??)

Thanks for any help in advance.
 
TRS= Tip Ring Sleeve, a type of jack. 3 points of contact, a balenced cable. Differant from an instrument cable which is TS and unbalenced.

TRS to TRS or XLR to TRS should give the same quality theoretically.
 
Thanks for the very quick response chamelious and thanks a heap for the info.
