connecting 001 to a home stereo to A/B between mixing monitors and stereo speakers...
 

I am trying to figure out how to run an output to a stereo so that I can listen to my mixes in realtime on a regular stereo, as opposed to my Mackie monitors, just to get a quick reference on how things are translating to the real world. The idea behind this is to not have to burn a CD every time I want to play it on another stereo.

I think I know how to do this but I just want to make sure this is okay before I attempt it...

I have the HR824's connected to output 1 and 2 (monitor outputs). I want to be able to just turn on the stereo and quickly listen to a mix without having to reconnect cables or whatever. If I connect outputs 3 and 4 to a vacant input on the back of my Denon stereo receiver (using 1/4" to RCA adaptor cables), would that work? Will all outputs be on at the same time, so that I can just turn the monitor volume knob down on the front of the Digi so I can hear the stereo speakers independently?

Well, I just tried it... it works!

Cool, now I can get immediate, realtime feedback on how my mixes are translating on an average home stereo system.

Yeah, another case ...solved.

You can also hook up your little digital computer speakers to the co-ax S/PDIF outputs for an alternative mix monitor.
