For the short interconnect runs you're envisaging, an unbalanced connection should be fine. The only possible issue you might come across would be grounding problems. The SB3 has a floating ground, so if you connect it up to a balanced input in the traditional way (floating the screen of the interconnect at the source end), you might get a hum problem. Tying the interconnect's screen to the ground at the SB end might fix this. Or if the active monitor's screen is decoupled from its ground, you may need to explicitly connect the SB and monitor grounds together. See http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?BalancedPowerAmps
