| Why do some amps provide more output power when using a balanced connection? I use balanced headphones .....balanced from the preamp through the balanced amp and then balanced to headphones.

| Vandersteen Seminar at Audio Connection (NJ) Richard and John are a couple of my favorites..... so sorry I couldn't attend. The one thing that was better living in NJ was that John was only 1/2 hour drive away. | |
