HI everyone. I am still very new to this. I have trouble understanding where this amp would fit in my setup in terms of where the xlr cables go in and out of this in relation to what i have.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Here is my current setup.
ID14 connects via USB to computer. 1L XLR output on ID14 goes L input XLR in the Subwoofer. 1R XLR Output on ID14 goes R Input XLR in the Subwoofer. Left Speaker Input XLR goes into L Output on Subwoofer. Right Speaker Input XLR goes into R Output on Subwoofer.
I have 1 mic and 1 line in inputs available on the ID14 (audio interface). I also have 1/4" Headphone jack out for ID14.
I have 1/4" Balanced Input available in both L and R Speakers. I have Balanced 1/4" Input L and R available in Subwoofer.
Where does the AMP fit into all this? Walk me through what wire goes where for the 789 Amp.
Sorry, I am so noob, and may sound basic to you all, but this is very confusing. @@. Thanks again!!
EDIT:
Would it be Balanced 1/4" cable out of the ID14 Headphone Jack split into XLR L and R Inputs of the 789 Amp?

ZhongCheung86i never dealt with something like that so maybe wait for someone else to chime in.
EDIT ANSWER: I think your headphone jack of the ID14 isn't balanced. So "no" but close.
(note: I just pasted the first cables I saw. I'm not recommending these exact cables).
(very confident of this method but it could be considered inferior)
If you don't care about balanced input https://www.amazon.com/TISINO-Gold-Plated-6-35mm-Stereo-Splitter/dp/B07HFBWP87/ x1 (uses the headphone output of ID14 to the RCA inputs of the 789 amp).
Another option to consider, but you'd have to give up either your speakers or subwoofers.
(less confident of this method but will produce best results for headphones if I'm not mistaken)
If you want balanced input,
I think you could use https://www.amazon.com/TISINO-Balanced-Quarter-Stereo-Interconnect/dp/B083R4CDT2/ x2 (one for each L/R 1/4" channel on the back of the ID14 unit -3L and 4R- which plugs into the xlr L/R inputs of the 789) . I've never done that before though. It just sounds like it reads that way.
