Like you said "balanced sounds more balanced". If you can't here the difference go with the cheapest route.
Balanced or SE inputs?
I've been looking at amps and preamps, and some of the units don't have both available. First off, not sure what they are other than connections, and is one preferable to the other. I've seen some people really like the SE inputs, but balanced sounds so much more, let's say "BALANCED" and by golly, why wouldn't you want "balanced" sound. How about a little enlightenment. Thanks.
