To add to my previous post (no hum-990/7500)-I am using Outlaw balanced cables...

Right-on. I just spoke with Scott and earlier Steve. They agree that this may eliminate whatever differences in potential to ground exists.

My system needs to go unbalanced, so I'm going to see if the balanced cable will carry whatever benefits accrue while unbalanced will make my life easier. For example I like an EQ between 990 & amp. Also I am going to be using KEF 107s and these use bass management (i.e. the KEF "CUBE") about which I'm just finding out. Will post results of balanced plus unbalanced later.
