    95% to 99% of all non-pro units/player/pro/pre/amp have unbalanced inputs/outputs

    "balanced connections are preferable to unbalanced because they are far less susceptible to pickup of interference"

    http://www.rotel.com/faqs/faqsinterconnects.htm

    "Balanced connections cancel any noise injected in the line and may provide better sound than RCA connections. "

    http://www.walrus.co.uk/tech/bal.htm

    "with careful design, careful earthing arrangements, and good screened cable combined with a low driving impedance, traditional Single Ended connection can still be superb and almost totally noise-free.
