Help appreciated on this,
I received this from the guys supplying the Genelec......
“
With regards to the connection, we would never really advise going straight from a minijack connection to XLRs (which the genelecs are) due to the impendence and conversion levels from HiFi to pro audio gear.
My best advice would be to buy a small mixer that you could go from your Sony device into the mixer, then from the mixer, to the genelecs.
So this is what I would recommend:
https://www.musicmatter.co.uk/chord-stereo-minijack-to-2x-mono-jack-lead-3m (going from your device into a mixer)
https://www.musicmatter.co.uk/alto-zephyr-zmx52 (using the cable above into channel 2 on the mixer)
https://www.musicmatter.co.uk/chord-balanced-6-3mm-trs-jack-to-xlr-m-3m-audio-cable (two of these going from the 'main mix' connectors to the Gens)”
I have already purchased 2*XLR M-F
And a 3.5 to XLR M
How much loss of quality will I lose not using his way.
And
Is his suggestion for the small mix unit a good one or should I consider something else.
Thanks for any help, never too old to learn.
