Technology / Home Audio / Balanced Wiring: Audio line signals require two conductors. In an unbalanced line, the shield is one of those. In a balanced line, there are two internal wires plus the shield. For the system to be balanced requires output transformers and usually employs XLR connectors. Balanced lines are less apt to pick up external noise. This is usually not a factor in home or car audio, but is a factor in professional audio requiring hundreds or even thousands of feet of cabling.
