I just looked up your sound card...

It looks like it uses a 1/4 inch TS/TRS instead of a mini plug. If it's 1/4 inch TRS, get a Hosa 1/4 to XLR and connect it to the XLR on the monitor.

You should be able to find something that'll work.

I will happily take the EAW rig off your hands.

I might supplement it with some Meyer stuff, but I have to say, for concert sound reinforcement, EAW is really nice stuff.
