Thank you for the link,
gryphongryph. That was most informative and actually makes a lot of sense. It is especially enlightening to learn how some manufacturers actually "fudge" it by offering an XLR jack but not the balanced circuitry to support it.
(Rotel comes to mind; not to pick on them, they are not alone. I often wondered how they could offer XLR connections on inexpensive products.)
