just a quick question on behalf of a friend
he has an m audio 2496 (RCA out) soundcard and a set of m audio bx 8 monitors
i suggested he uses a pair of these leads ..
but then i was thinking there might be an issue becase they are mono jack plugs, and the speaker inputs are TRS which is stereo
does anyone know if there will be an issue using the mono plugs?

It shouldn't be a problem, the left output should go to the left speaker, and the right output to right one :)

All that happens is the tip still goes to the tip, but the sleeve gets split between the sleeve and ring input on the speaker. This si the correct way to wire a balanced to unbalanced cable anyway.
He may be better getting seperate leads though rather than those joined ones depending on where he s putting his speakers
