[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 49444, member: 126"] Re: Help with PA/Mixer connections Using premium quad mic cable will not likely be significant to the sound quality you get using entry level gear, while better is always better. Making your own cables could save some cash if you have more time than money, but if your soldering skills are unproved you could be introducing a variable in troubleshooting set up issues that you don't need. Perhaps a mix of good commercial cables too, so you can confirm problems are not cable related, while very cheap manufactured cables are not without their own issues. As already mentioned a 1/4" TRS output is probably mono balanced, with the possible exception of a headphone jack that will be stereo. Some mixers provide stereo feeds on 1/8" TRS, but these aren't that widely used in SR. JR [/QUOTE]
