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!

Well, we don't get a lot of pro gear questions here, but it seems very simple.  Use 1/4" TRS connectors from the Main OUT on the Behringer to your PD amp/mixer using the Lin IN connectors. 

The real problem is you have 2 mixers.  The Behringer and the PD amp both have mixers built in, so you have a lot of extra controls, but this should work.

Hi thanks for the answer - when you say the "line in" on the pd amp mixer do you mean two of the inputs on the front that i would normally plug an instrument/mic into?

If so then id lose two of the inputs for instruments on the mixer?

 

If so would these two inputs on the pa amp/mixer become the main out control?

Not that the loss of two inputs on the pa/amp mixer would matter as i would basically be using the pa/amp mixer to power the speakers and the separate Behringer mixer for all the inputs.
