Hi Jeffrey,
I don't remember what cable came with the AX14S but I bet it was a
stereo cable which will only "work" in 9/10 to get you both zones.
What you need is two separate cables to set yourself up:
1. You need a HOSA YPP-117 to split 9/10 into two 1/4" mono females
which you can see here
http://www.directproaudio.com/product.cfm?directid=34032
and
2. 1/4" insert cable (such as HOSA STP 202) to split the AX14S into
two mono males which you can see here
http://www.directproaudio.com/product.cfm?directid=24977
You should ask Ed at Drumbalaya to sell these to you (although I only
saw the YPP 117 on the site) or you can get them from directproaudio
or anywhere else you can find them.
Also, mounting on a stand is the way to go and I was really
specifically talking about the settings for the snare head/rim that
will require some "extra" tweaks..
Hope this helps....
Rich
