Should I use a DI box to balance my PA speakers?
I'm using my iPod through a mixer to my active loudspeakers. The mixer's output is unbalanced and the speakers' input is balanced. Would this affect sound quality? Should I use a DI box to fix this?
My idea is to buy the DI box and run a TS 1/4 cable from the mixer to the DI box and a XLR cable from the box to my speakers. Is it a good idea or is it a waste of time and money and I should just run a TRS 1/4 to XLR cable directly from mixer to speakers?
Do not use DI boxes - it is a waste of money and will not get you better sound. Instead use 1/4 TRS to XLR male adapter cables. TRS is a balanced connector just like XLR so you can run the cables any distance with not loss in quality.
I have used this type of cable for years with my powered speakers.
