How Do I Connect A passive PA System's Amplifier To A Mixer
Hi, hoping someone can help me here.
I have a pa system with passive speakers and a 800W amplifier.
I want to hook it up to my mixer for live gigs (three piece band).
This is the pa system:
My mixer is a Behringer X2222USB:
Hope this is posted in the right section - if not please advise.
Thanks!

Close to the left of your PDA's EQ, there is an 1/8" Line In and (slightly further over) a 1/4" Line In. The unit's manual is not very comprehensive and doesn't mention whether either are a stereo input and there are no controls (that I can see) for their levels, balance, etc, so: no indication if they are stereo inputs. If the 1/4" Line In is a stereo outlet*: make or buy a two 1/4" Mono to one 1/4" stereo plug cable and connect the Behringer's 1/4" Outs to that Line In. *If not: most 1/8" Line Ins are stereo, to facilitate the playing of portable tapes, CDs, etc and you could follow the above idea, but with an 1/8" stereo plug or 1/4" to 1/8" stereo plug adapter. If neither of the PDA's Line Ins are stereo: go from the Behringer's L/R 1/4" Outputs to both the 1/4" and 1/8" Line Ins with mono cables. Mickey Mouse, but: it should get you there. https://www.amazon.com/JOLGOO-Stereo-Breakout-6-35mm-Splitter/dp/B082X6618T?th=1
