Would anyone here recommend a line balancing transformer,using the unbalanced analog output and placing the unbalanced cables into this transformer and then putting balanced cables from the transformer to the inside house amp? I have no idea if this would work properly or would it degrade the

I currently am using the Transporter's balanced analog output to feed a amp to outside speakers(due to long distance cable run) but i wish to also use the Transporter's balanced output for a amp that I use inside the house. I switch frequently between the two systems(inside and Outside)

Personally, I would use the AES/EBU output of the TP to drive a long digital cable to a suitable DAC near your outside amp. Then use the TP balanced analogue output to your inside amp. Normally outside systems do not have the absolute highest fidelity anyway (YMMV). This is what AES/EBU was
