It really depend upon the relative input and output impedance of one unit to the next. That is why I use balanced XLR connectors. Though I have found that I can use RCA cables if I use an extra shield which is grounded to the signal source. Of course I live near the top of a mountain which has many transmitter antennae, TV, FM, communication, cell phone etc. Now I wait for Ted and Sonny to tear me a new one. :-) Jerry Ken Iisaka wrote: > The balanced XLR is more immune to noise.
