Finally getting a Harmony One remote and want to install trigger cables.
Went to monoprice and they seem to only have stereo 3.5mm not mono.
Anyone know where to order some?
Thanks
Peter

Stereo cables work just fine as trigger cables. So I read anyway. And geebo is right, the cables are included.

I bought one at Radio Shack couple of years ago. It was $6.99 back then! I don't think the Shack carries these any more.
Stereo cable should work fine.

Try contacting Emo. They may have some to sell or just may give them to you... Plus if you need something like the Emo ET-3, it comes with three cables I believe.

Stereo is fine, I use stereo for trigger all the time, as I find them more easily available than mono.

Thanks for the replies everyone, went through my cable crate and found two, don't remember where they came from but they work. Hooked them up today, now all I need is one from my second XPA-1 to the XPA-3 and I am golden.
Radio Shack is just down the street from work and I will check them out tomorrow. Harmony One will be here Thursday, and it just so happens I have from Thursday until the Tuesday after Labor day off...woohoo!!!!

Check your boxes. Emo includes trigger cables with their amps. Not with all their amps, I did not receive any trigger cables from them with either of my amp purchases. Stereo cables are much more common and easier to find in more lengths. The stereo cables will usually work with out any problems however some people have said that the stereo cables wouldn't work for their systems. I think this is probably do to their receiver or processor's trigger output. So I would recommend buying a mono cable is possible but if not the stereo will most likely work fine. I have always used stereo cables and it has worked fine. |

I have always used stereo cables and it has worked fine. I've used stereo cables as well. Sometimes you have to take the plug partially out of the jack to make it work (can't remember which side to do that on, the output or input side, but that effectively makes it a mono connection). |

Yes this is where I bought my current trigger cables, very nice quality and very low priced. I bought two 2 ft cables for only 80 cents each and two 12 ft cables for 96 cents each. I liked the quality better than ones I saw costing a lot more. |
