In the first example where the second speaker is connected to the first speaker via speaker wire is there still an advantage to using an audio interface? It seems the signal running across to the second speaker would be susceptible to noise. Though maybe that signal is at a higher power (post amplification) than the original audio signal out of the headphone jack, so I could be wrong.
im interested to know. I use a set of z906 5/7.1's. The sound I get is pretty nice, I don't feel like im missing any frequencies and I can set it to 2.1 with the 1 being the sub. Do I specifically need to swap out the z906's? I have ear issues, but do use DT 770's to check on sound quality when in the zone and my ears can take it too.
I'm so glad to have stumbled upon your channel. It's like i'm entering into a new world. Thanks for the hard work and for all the knowledge shared! I dare say, your channel has the best content of all the channels ive been watching for the past days. I have two questions and hopefully you will notice my comment here hehe. I am thinking of setting up a simple karaoke set in a bedroom. 1) Will there be any latency if i were to do karaoke on youtube with this setting? (Studio monitor+mic+audio interface+laptop/tv)? Will it work? 2) Should I get mixer (MG10XUF) and connect it to pa speakers instead of studio monitor? Do you have any recommendations on which speaker brand/type to use (say if i need to use normal speakers or pa speakers) 3)Should i get karaoke amplifier? Fyi, I am just going to have the set up on a work desk. Like a mini karaoke set up for myself. Thank you in advance!!
thanks for the info. I have a great guitar amp but there's so many cool plug in amp simulators I'm trying to figure out how to hook up everything, guitar and studio monitors to my Mac. Sounds like the audio interface takes care of it all. Just curious, does the guitar signal go from the interface to the Mac and then back out to the interface and then the speakers? Sounds strange but apparently it does.
I am thinking to upgrade my Mackie CR3 speakers to Yamaha HSs. I have a small music room (2.4x2.4 meters) which is is little treated acoustically. Speakers placed on wall mounts (swivel brackets). Should I get Yamaha HS5 or HS7 for audio editing, connecting the mic, digital piano, bass guitar, and a little bit of mixing. I Use Yamaha MG10XU as my main soundboard/card. Speaker loudness does not matter for me, just seek a good and clear audio representation. Thanks in advance! 🙏
So I have the monitors and the Scarlett. As for cabling, to I get two separate cables snd where would I plug them in - or - will plugging one cable into my Mac earphones automatically split the sound to a stereo mix?
Thanks for the great information it helped a lot! One thing I’m unsure about - I have the same audio interface as you, but to which port on the PC (not a Mac) do I connect the cable from the interface? Is it the 3.5mm green output or is it any USB port?
How do I hook up to my massive old-school Fisher amp, so I can use my massive Fisher speakers? Using, that is, the input receptacles for my Fisher turntable jacks? There are two jacks (for stereo R&L) plus a ground conncetion.
What about the impedance? I saw that Mac Mini m2 has high impedance jack out this could maybe change the reference when amplifying studio monitors that will be around 4 to 8ohms?
so the 3rd method: using a Scarlett 4i4... is using a mixer similar to this 3rd method? (such as the Behringer Xenyx 502 or the Yamaha AG03 or AG06? The key is that the Scarlett or the mixer can increase the volume quite a bit... otherwise right now, my piano playing that is played by the VST and sent out by Mac's headphone to the Yamaha HS5 is not loud enough... it is like a 10W output even when my HS5 is 70W
I have my piano connected to my studio monitors. Do I need another set of quarter inch cables if I want to connect my monitors to audio interface / computer?
i have a quick question i bought some yamaha hs5s and i connect them to my laptop and the problem is i have a red and black cord and when i connect the red to the speaker it works but when i connect the black it doesnt and it does the same when i connect the other cord to the other what do i do?
how come when I use method 2 with the exact hosa cable, it works fine on my laptop, but plugging into my monitor, my iPhone headphone jack and my pc it has a fuzzy noise, but yet the "same" connection on laptop is not fuzzy?
hey! i'm sorry i think i already commented this, but would it be possible to get a video for the go xlr mini + re 20? i'm having a lot of trouble with it and i'm sure it would also help others a lot thanks c:

hi so being new to this I just got the Focusrite 2i2 and two sm condenser mics , I hope to record the Rav Vast drum I play and use a loop pedal , Question Should I also get a sm mixer to use or even if I got rid of interface , and got a USB Mixer?? what would you recommend, I want to be able to burn CDs , Thanks Eddie
I think I’m doing everything right but there’s still no sound coming through my hs5 speakers :( could the focusrite be broken? My mac detects that it’s there and I have gone into settings and selected input and output but still nothing :( any ideas?
Extremely helpful - I was wondering how easy it was to plug in some basic studio monitors to also use as computer speakers, and this showed me the exact solution I was looking for. I'm looking at the Presonus Eris 2nd gen 4.5's, which appear to have both 2 RCA (unbalanced) and 2 TRS (balanced) quarter inch jacks. I suppose I would go with 1/8 to quarter inch TRS, if you think that gives a clearer signal/sound.
Hi Kettner i wanna ask you if use single monitor and work with single monitor do I need only 1 balanced cable and a audio unit and i still can listen and get the full sound of music ? and or do I have to make trick to make it happen I have low budget and a big studio monitor thanks for your answer have a nice day
Hi, so the third part, I have it connected exactly how you have it but for some reason when I play music on UA-cam, the right side of the speaker the sound comes on but the left side I don’t hear anything. However I do hear that it’s turned on but no music sound coming out. Hope that makes sense. Please help.
I'm using my mackie profx12. So from my pc to the Mackie..yet if I turn up the volume with no music playing I'm getting some still noticeable interference...is there a high end cable I can get to connect my pc to my Mackie that could possibly stop this ..if so can you give me a link..regards Stuart.
Great Video. I have been watching some of your videos and it is awesome that you are explaining this stuff. I am just looking at upgrading my computer speakers to monitor speakers and want to get an interface like the Scarlett or the Motu audio interface. What I am getting from this video, is the USB-C cable from PC/MAC to the interface is how the audio from the PC/MAC goes to the monitors? So if I am listening to music, watching YT/Videos and so on I can adjust the volume in the audio interface and life is good? It is the only part I am not fully understanding. Thanks
Its possible to go with XLR into the speaker? or is the XLR just to conncet other Speaker together? Is the on the focus rite 2 Stereoklinke exist so it mean i can conncet 4 speaker with it?
I have a mac mini m2. And it wont recognize my speakers in the thunderbolt port. Is this even possible?! On a mini m2. Or would i need speakers that have 3.5mm jack!!!? Asking for a friend 😅
Thanks brotha, love the av 40s I think the sound great, currently have them mounted on in the garage with a tv and Amazon Alexa plugged in. Works great for streaming music and pairing to phone with Bluetooth. I am looking to get the Yamaha HS8 so I can hook them up to my computer, I like the focusrite route , but how would I be able to hook up a record player to focusrite and a equalizer?
what can I do in this situation - I have my monitors connected to PC , they sound great everything is fine, but if I connect my audio interface to computer and plug in my guitar, I have 0 sounds. I can record in ableton or audacity or whatever and then listen to it, but I can't hear anything while I record and play. Then I found tutorials that I have to use specific cables and connect monitors to my focusrite interface, but how am I gona hear recorded things on computer then? basicaly, how can I set them up so I could hear what I play, and also hear what I have recorded
Thank you so much for this awesome informations! I was really lost with audio interface and your video helped me a lot. I already use the Focusrite to connect my Shure SM7B for video YT, and I wanted to buy some Yamaha speakers for video editing. I didn't know that I could put my speakers on Focusrite, I thought I needed to buy another audio interface just for speakers...thanks!
They are identical, you just place the cables how the speakers are positioned. Red to the speaker that is on the right side and white/black to the speaker thats on the left side.
I have a Scarlett audio interface connected to my Mac and all sounds come out perfectly from logic but if it was safari or apple music then the sound goes to the Mac speaker, how can I fix that?
Rule number one when doing these setups is gain staging guys. Keep your volumes at zero initially and slowly turn up the volume so you don’t damage your speakers or damage your ears.
It's very true. The inputs on the back of an active (self powered) monitor are not setup to receive a signal from a power amp. You could easily damage your equipment.
I’ve plugged my speakers into my audio mixer and my mic sound comes out of my headset and speakers but anything I try to play on my pc doesn’t come out of my headset or speakers, can someone please help
Nearly every article I find on how to connect a Mac to a stereo/hi-fi/speakers says to use the 3.5mm headphone jack, however this method sounds like crap.
for the second method, those cables are called "TRS to TS 'breakout' cables"... it is like faking unbalanced signal as balanced signal to feed into a device like the Yamaha HS5 that normally takes a balanced input
Everybody knows how to plug cables man. Most people went into this video expecting you will tell which is better. In the M Audio speakers you have there, you could do both options, 1/8" or 1/4". Which is better? That was the thing to answer.
It doesn't matter what cable you use if it's terminated to and AUX. RCA, TS or even TRS and XLR would all run unbalanced if they terminate to a 3.5mm. The difference would only be personal preference. You'll get a 'better' version by connecting an interface and then running a balanced connection either through a TRS or an XLR to either speaker. That way you can get the error-correction those cables support through the interface. TLDR; Without an interface it doesn't matter what cable you use.
For a 10 years old boy, perhaps connecting the studio monitors to a headphone output may works, but it will sound horrendous. I believe this could be considered illegal abuse of the sound! 😂 Use appropriate audio interfaces, in second-hand market you can buy a Focusrite from less than 80 box!
Horrendous might be an overstatement. You might lose a tiny bit of dynamic range, and a tiny bit of frequency response which most people can't even hear anyway. For a lot of people, it's a great solution. Of course a dedicated A/D converter is the best case scenario, but using the computer sound card is far from horrendous.
@@kettnercreative is not a matter of quality: headphone output is a nearby 0 ohms impedance and low power in general, so if you connect directly to an amplifier you will need to set a high gain loosing precision and changing completely the sound color. Why use a studio monitor which is a precise tool for differentiating frequency levels if you’re changing those levels with a headphone output? For verification, you can connect your speakers to your Scarlett using the headphone output and hear the difference. The best headphone amp will be quite bad connected to a line level input (which usually expect 1,2 volts and has around 10.000 ohms). Connection to a headphone output will produce high distortions, bass enhance over treble and a ton of source noise. Better don’t tell incorrect information, as people who begin in audio will lack opportunities for enjoy their hobby or their future job just by less than 100 $ 🙄
