Balanced output is not useful except for very long cable runs (over 50' or in a very hostile environment such as next to motors). In fact, since additional circuitry is required to implement it, the soncis can actually be worse. It is best to use unbalanced connections unless absolutely required.

Owl's,

Just goes to show what you know. I was over at the Home Depot the other day to pick up some fireplace logs and Elvis helped me carry them to the car. He's been clerking there for a few weeks. I tipped him a buck and he said, "Thank you very much."

Nice guy.

Elvis says he hopes it also has an i.Link input. wink

There are no line level balanced connections anywhere in my system - even equipment such as my ProTools digital audio workstation is run in unbalanced mode. If you're talking about push-pull power amplifier output stages, those are not technically a balanced circuit. A bridged power amp is, but this configuration is used for more power output, not to cancel cable-borne interferrence. In any event, I don't use bridged amplifiers - the subs use a straight push-pull output stage amplifier.

I'm just giving you crap about your setup again. :p wink Your processing equipment is well away from the subs anyway, isn't it?
