Just from a black box point of view it sounds like the Onkyo might not be working. Have you tried any other sources with it?
XLR Question
You won't see this one every day....
I've recently converted a listening room to dual use - listening and recording. I'm trying to use the 2 channel system as a monitor for the recording studio.
The 2 channel pre-amp is an Onkyo 5508 pre-pro (stereo mode) which has a set of stereo xlr balanced inputs available. So, I want to take the output of my PC audio interface (Pre Sonus Audiobox) into the Onkyo.
The Audiobox allows the PC recording system to connect to a monitor via balanced 1/4 inch trs out (phone plug). I got a trs to xlr cable and it works perfectly into a pair of active m-audio studio monitors. However, no signal is evident when I connect the same trs-xlr cable into the Onkyo
Other than a faulty input on the Onkyo, any idea what might cause the monitors to work but not the pre-pro?
thanks in advance
