Most important is the signal fed into any cable, balanced or RCA. Even the 'best' balanced cable can't improve a bad signal. The Meridian is a very nice piece of equipment, so if that sounds better to your ears, forget about the type of connections and enjoy the music.

Does it make much of difference in sound quality?
I'm getting power amp with balanced in, and thinking about between Meridian 561 and Anthem avm20 pre/pro.
Meridain 561 looks like a great deal these days, but it lacks the balanced out...
Sort of feeling quilty of getting a pre/pro without balanced out while my amp will have the balanced in...
