Re: [disklavier] External Speakers for MX100IIXG

2010-01-10 by George F. Litterst

Good afternoon, everyone.

On the other hand, my DC6 IIXG Pro is connected to a Yamaha home theater amplifier with Cambridge SoundWorks speakers (2 tweeters and a dual sub woofer) and the setup works great.

Ken, if you continue to have trouble figuring this out, I suggest that you call Yamaha Piano Service at (800) 854-1569.

Regards,

My suggestion is that you buy new powered speakers. Usually, the better
quality the sound, the uglier they are! I own a MarkIIXG. The output is
dual monaural, so you don't really need a set of stereo speakers unless you
want the same sound coming from two different places. Ensemble sounds are
not audio, but MIDI instruments (data run through a synthesizer), and that
is why you need powered speakers.
