the way I understand it: Audio 2 DJ outputs are unbalanced, TRS is balanced. Therefore to go between the two you needed to change the Audio 2 signal to balanced using a DI - http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/DI20.aspx

Then you could use XLR / TRS into the bx5as

I had a similar question when I was looking at some bx8as and got some good advice from fullenglishprint about balanced / unbalanced: M-Audio Studiophile BX8a
