How do I connect the monitor speaker to a peavey 8500 power mixer

SOURCE: How do i connect 2 monitors to the one monitor

The monitors will have to be POWERED monitors with built in amps.

You can simply use a wye splitter cable to drive the two monitors. Run the cable from the mixer to one monitor and put a wye cable and an extention to the second powered monitor speaker.

Sorry, but this unit does NOT support "bridged" mode. You will have to drive seperate speakers from the two seperate outputs. You would NOT get any more power if you could do bridged mode than you could with 4 ohm speakers on each of the two output channels.

First off it's outputs to your speakers. If you had an extra set of powered or amplified speakers you could "Y" cable your speaker outputs. Your passive speakers won't work without an amp. You really need powered speakers or an amp for your extra speakers. (if you had powered/amp'd speakers you could run them off one of you "aux" out for monitors. Do not daisy chain your speakers connecting twi together, you'll change the resistance/ohms and damage your speakers. Trust me, I do this for a living.

That's easily done. Simply connect the left(or right) output of your mixer to one of the channels on the peavey. Use any line input. Since the peavey is a mono system, there's no need sending a stereo mix to it.

SOURCE: Using Behringer PMP3000 to power monitors??

The power amp INSERT's are NOT intended to be used as inputs for the power amp but are for external effects units. The TIP of the jack plugged in here receives the signal from the preamp section and the inout of the power amp is taken from the RING of this threee conductor jack. If you want to use one of the power amps to run monitor speakers with no less than 4 ohms combine, you can use the built in Mon mode without any additional cables. You will set the mono/mon positon (center) and use the mo1 slider to control the output from the amp side for the mon speakers. The other amp then is used for the main speakers.
