The headroom of the input circuits is also high enough to accep
the maximum output level from virtually any low-level signal
source. Balanced signals are less sensitive to AC hum and radio
interference. The source impedance should be less than 1 kohms
to avoid high frequency loss in long cables.

A better method for using unbalanced sources is shown in figure
balanced lines, but pin 3 is connected to the shield at the source end of the cable. The hum and noise
rejection for the cable is equivalent to that of a balanced line. To minimize hum in the audio signal, us
balanced inputs whenever possible.

For two-channel (stereo) operation, use both channels A and B. For tandem stereo or bridged mono
operation, use only one of the inputs. See

operation modes
