You will get varying answers to this. IMO, no, it doesn't matter for 3ft connections at line level, such as between SB and pre-amp/amp. Balanced is really important for very low level signals such as microphones. ...and yes this is just for interconnects, not speakers. (you can have balanced speakers but that's way OT). -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
