• True Balanced Audio refers to a superior audio signal that results in higher sound quality with nearly zero background noise
• True Balanced gear can be utilized as both balanced (with the proper components and signal path) or non-balanced
• True Balanced Audio requires a moving coil cartridge (MC) or the Pro-Ject Pick it Pro Balanced MM Cartridge
• True Balanced Audio requires a balanced audio cable (5-pin, mini XLR or XLR) connected from the turntable to the the preamp
• True Balanced Audio requires a preamp that accepts balanced cables; you can output either XLR (recommended) or RCA from the preamp
