It is my understanding that the folks at Atmosphere are using runs of balanced Belden cable between their top end preamp and power amps. Would be worth a call to Atmosphere to find out what they have to say about it. I'm sure they are able to use whatever they want. One of the advantages of balanced cable is they are suitable for very long runs and they are said to have much less of a sonic signature than single ended cables. Just a thought and it would not cost very much to find out. Given that Belden caters to a different market there is no hype or the snake oil so often present in the world of high end audio cables. Good luck with it.
40 feet balanced between preamp and Levinson....
I need to run balanced outs from my preamp (soon to be an Audio Research) to my Mark Levinson No.27 in an adjacent room. I have Magnepan 3.3 speakers. The distance is 40ft (2x40). And there's no way around it. I cannot spend a million dollars on this, and I wonder if anyone has a suggestion.
