I have 2 Bose bookshelf speakers which I used in my old stereo receiver. I'd like to use them in a standard Behringer mixing board but it only has 1/4" Main Outs (not the "clips" for the bare speaker wire like my receiver had). Is it possible to solder a 1/4" mono jack to each pair of speaker wires and use these as the mixer's L/R outputs? Will that work? Thanks for any tips!
There's no problem with soldering wires to connectors, you don't even have to go to that much trouble if you buy screw type (non-soldered) connectors. As long as you are using this only for speaker level cable runs you need only be certain of correct polarity (+ to + and - to -)when you do the physical hookup to the connectors and speakers. Are you sure you need "mono" connectors?
