Backup Mixer to Active Speakers

[Megamix]

I've got a Numark M1USB which I bought as a backup mixer.

It only has phono connectors.

I've got two active speakers. with Balanced Input/ Link (XLR) and Input Link (Jack)

This is probably a very simple and even more obvious question - but what leads can I use? - Phono to Jack or Phono to XLR?

TIA

Phono to XLR would be my choice.

Wrong Gender.

The way to remember what type of XLR is "Signal on Pins"

The source has the pins, the destination has the holes.
