About balanced connectors

This unit has both unbalanced and balanced connectors. The
balanced connectors have three pins, making it possible to
transmit audio signals as a balanced signal, reducing the
effect of external noise. They also have a removable lock
mechanism, which reduces shaking in the connector area,
making the connection highly reliable.
