I have found many times that I prefer a single-ended connection on front end equipment to a balanced. The fully balanced connection from my preamp to the amp improves sound but the single-ended was considerbly beter from the CD to the preamp. Dale
Truely balanced the better design?
My cd player is a truly balanced design and so is my pre amp.
Now I might have plans to upgrade my preamp in the near future, but this particular pre amp I would like to buy does not have balanced in and outputs.
I always felt that I get a better performance, if I went balanced compared to single ended.
If my cd player is balanced and my pre-amp single ended, would I loose performance or not?
Of course my cd palyer has single ended in and outputs also.
