Hi I'm completely new and not sure if this is the place to ask but does anyone know if the PreSonus Eris E3.5 Studio Monitors work with the Schiit Hel Dac/Amp?

Thanks, Tony

Tony, the Schiit web site says you can use it as a preamp/DAC for active monitor speakers.

Yeah that's why I bought them both, but after connecting them I'm getting no sound from the speakers, only a buzzing. Like I said I'm completely new to this so I don't know if it's me doing something wrong, but as far as I can tell everything's connected properly.

ajtupman.......Make sure you are using the preamp output on the back of the HEL. It requires an 1/8" mini stereo TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) to dual RCA cable. Plug the mini stereo connector into your HEL preamp output, then plug the left and right RCA connectors into the unbalanced inputs on your PreSonus speakers. Make sure your analog input or USB input is connected to a source, USB power is connected to the HEL USB power input from the supplied wall-wart, and that you have selected the proper input with the switch on the front of the HEL preamp.

Here is an Audioquest Golden Gate mini RCA to dual RCA cable that my son uses-

You can buy it in shorter lengths.
