External Speakers for MX100IIXG

2010-01-09 by kenmortgages

Hi all

After a lengthy absence (taking piano lessons) I'm back again and I hope someone on the forum has some advice they can offer.

I have an MX100IIXG which has just celebrated its 10th birthday and sounds even better than when it arrived from the dealer (take a bow Greg - my tuner). I've used Bose powered speakers (PC speakers) for the ensemble parts for many years but they have recently failed.

I thought I could send the ensemble signal to a pre-amp then into the main stereo I have in the living room. Unfortunately the sound is very poor quality - and somewhat distorted at higher volumes. I tried changing the balance on the main menu, but that made little difference.

Has anybody connected their XG module through a stereo system, or should I just go out and buy another pair of powered speakers? The latter seems a waste as the stereo (Bose) is quite an excellent unit.

Cheers
Ken
