Page 11: Optional Balanced Input
For example, when one conductor is carrying a signal of +10 Volts, the other will be carrying a signal of –10 Volts. When these two inverted signals on a balanced line are output from the MOON 340i, any noise picked up by the interconnect will be eliminated since a differential circuit amplifies only the difference between these two signals: Noise on a balanced interconnect will be equal on both conductors and therefore not be processed. -
