Hello,
I’m new here and need some advice from the pros. 
What I have:
- Laptop
- Focusrite Scarlett 2i2
- 2 small home build speakers
What I want to do:
Buy a SMSL-SA36A amp to drive the speakers.
Therefore I thought I could use the outputs of the 2i2 as input for the SA36A.
According to the spec sheet the outputs are two 1/4" TRS.
I thought I could use a TS-to-RCA cable to connect them.
Then banana plugs from SA36A to speakers.
But does this work? As far as I understand I am going from a balanced to an unbalanced connection between DAC and amp … will this make problems?
The cable I was targeting: https://www.amazon.com/Cordial-PC-Cable-CFU-black/dp/B001CZLPJW/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Cordial%2BCFU%2B0.9%2BPC&qid=1581528413&sr=8-1&th=1
Or is the whole setup just a bad idea?
I would like to keep the budget small for now. I am interested in getting deeper into HiFi but right now I don’t have the time and money and just want some half decent audio.
Best Regards
