Trigger wire???

snake1

Hey crew, I need to know where to find a trigger wire to go from my Onk to the 2250. Any suggestions or links would be great! I thought a simple stereo 3.5mm wire would do it but I'd rather get the right thing!

Try emailing Parasound they are pretty good responding back very quick. Try Richard at Parasound last time he help me out with some need it information.

One more thing, I am not sure about the 809 but on my 709 the 12v trigger is only for the second zone. You may want to check that on the 809. I have been using audio sense on my 2125 and have not had any issues so far.

I think, like most Parasound amps, the 2250's input trigger jack is a 2.5 mm one. The trigger jack on almost all other gear is 3.5 mm. I'd recommend getting a 3.5 mm to 2.5 mm cable from Parasound as they are not commonly available, or you could try splicing one together or buy an adapter from PartsExpress.

I'll add that in my experience you need to make sure you use a mono cable and not stereo.

Yep, should be mono, and the 2250 does have a 2.5mm jack. Get one of these:

I have mine set a the minimum level.

Very good I was kinda confused about whether it should be set on minimum or maximum. I have had it set on minimum most of the day and the music very low and it's been working very very well! Maybe this is the fix.
