Hi,i have a question concerning if my signal is balanced or unbalanced going into my studio powered monitor speakers,the setup is like this-going out from sound card on the computer by stereo mini plug rca cable into a Behringer eurorack ub802 mixer by left and right mono 1/4 inch plugs and then out of the unbalanced mains left and right of my mixer by 1/4 inch mono plug cables into my 1/4 inputs on my powered monitors,now would the signal be balanced or unbalanced? Thanx. P.S. Could anyone tell me how to get a balanced signal if you don't have a XLR out on the mixer.

    The signal coming out of the mixer to the monitors would be unbalanced. To get a balanced signal, you would need a direct insertion box, converts high z unbalanced signals to low z balanced signals.

    the behringer boards lack balanced on their aux sends and other outputs besides the main xlr outs.

    Your powered monitors should be able to accept balanced signals if they have xlr inputs or if your 1/4 say TRS, thats tip ring sleeve, a balanced xlr in 1/4 inch form
