Hey,
I recently just bought the ddj-sb3 along with a pair of krk rokit 5's.
I seen studio monitors are mainly for mixing and practiing/studio time and not for parties.
I went ahead and bought 1 mackie thump12a based on price and performance this seems like a good buy.
Still awaiting arrival of items but from researching im sort of confused as to how i would make this work.
ddj-sb3 comes with only 1 rca master output.
How would i connect to my pair of rokit krk 5's.
also, would i be able to connect to my Mackie thump12a.
Yes i am new to all this so im not exactly sure.
I did do some research and seen the Mackie comes with XLR input and not any RCA.
With 1 RCA master output could i connect to 2 rokit 5's.
And how well would an RCA to XLR cable work if i was to go that route.
I really wanted to practice and use this SB3 before upgrading to any other controller without really testing where im at in the world of djing.
Plus i just bought it and spent money i dont want to go to waste.
Thanks in advance

Yes male to male and you only need one RCA-XLR to go to each speaker Also set Serato to mono when using just one speaker.
