Hi Erik, the amp I’ll just walk to turn it off, the preamp I can just reach over from the sofa or use the remote. Still ugly thick cables from the amp to the preamp is something I guess I’ll be stuck with.
im completely clueless with cables - can I just use cheap XLRs from, say Guitar Center - would this make a difference?
Also, bit confused at what you mean by “not the whole thing truly balanced”
