[QUOTE="mcsoul, post: 5668618, member: 588440"] Balanced inputs take the place of RCA inputs. They are only an advantage if you run the line driver up front instead of RCA's. Some eq's may have the balanced line driver built in. I would not necessarily see any gain by running a small box line driver converter close to the amp after a long RCA run. If you go balanced from very close to the head unit, all the way out to your amps on all your stages (low mid-high) there should be a clear advantage over standard RCA line level setup. I would say going balanced is one of the few things you can do that will make a difference. Way more than people who spend an extra $30 ++ more than they need to on RCA cables. [/QUOTE]
