Hutzal connoisseur Registered: 07/26/06 Posts: 2102 Loc: Hollywood. (Canadian @ <3)	Hey guys, I have googled this topic, and still cannot find any info on this... Can I use a normal 3.5mm stereo male/male to connect the 12v trigger from an RX-V663 to the LPA-1 amp? What kind of cable is used for this? I am pretty confused about this whole issue, not sure why google hasn't come through for me!! _________________________ Producer \| Composer www.robbhutzal.com

Now that you're in the U.S. of A. though, you'll have use a 1/8" rather than a 3.5mm. _________________________ ----------------------------------- Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

EFalardeau connoisseur Registered: 08/27/07 Posts: 3272 Loc: Laval, Quebec, Canada	Yes, make sure it is mono. I tried stereo cables (I had loads of them) at some point and it was not working. Used mono and yippee! Might differ depending on device. _________________________ E = MC2 = ((2M80 + VP180 + 4QS8)/(EP800 + EP500))^(ADA1500 x D2v) Audiobytes! 2M22! 2VP150!

marsilians hobbyist Registered: 12/20/07 Posts: 26 Loc: Markham, Canada	Hutzal, Seeing that you are using an Emo amp, here is a good link on the topic of connecting triggers to amps. http://emotivalounge.proboards54.com/index.cgi?board=ampfaqs&action=display&thread=1719
