I did see somewhere the circuit configuration of a BHK 250 and I noted it uses a fully balanced symmetrical drive throughout ... which is by far the best way to go ..

If you do use long RCA type unbalanced cables then use high quality low capacitance cable with multi strand copper conductors

Put a transformer on any input or output and it becomes a balanced input or output (unless you then ground the secondary winding) but it will not become a differential input or output amplifier (if it was not already).

So what is the advantage or benefit of a Balanced XLR if the amplifier is not a differential amplifier?

@@jonathanmatthew5631 basically the xlr will remove the ground noise from anything, only if the 2 sides (example an amp and a dac) are balanced, because it needs the differential amplifier por it to process the balanced signal. One thing you can do is make your amplifier balanced like paul says in this video, puting a diferencial amplifier in the inputs of your amplifier. but its a little technical and DIY thing to do.

It allows you to run a long - maybe several hundred feet -cable run between the source and the amp. That can be a problem in pro audio, where mic runs between the studio and control rooms can be pretty distant. Or in a live sound situation where the amps and speakers are far from the mixer.

So in other words for example, a stereo differential class d amplifier has to have at least 4 channels in btl mode, in order for the audio signal to be sent via 2 of the channels and returned via the other 2 remaining channels without using the system ground whatsoever, so any noise present on the system ground will be ignored?

Your explanation conflicts with the explanations given in the Wikipedia entries for 'Balanced audio' and 'Differential signaling'. I quote: "" Contrary to popular belief, differential signalling does not affect noise cancellation. Balanced lines with differential receivers will reject noise regardless of whether the signal is differential or single-ended,[1][2] but since balanced line noise rejection requires a differential receiver anyway, differential signalling is often used on balanced lines. Some of the benefits of differential signalling include: Doubled signal voltage between the differential pair (compared to a single-ended signal of the same nominal level), giving 6 dB extra headroom.[1] Common-mode noise between the two amps (e.g. from imperfect power supply rejection) is easily rejected by a differential receiver. Longer cable runs are possible due to this increased noise immunity and 6 dB extra headroom. At higher frequencies, the output impedance of the output amplifier can change, resulting in a small imbalance. When driven in differential mode by two identical amplifiers, this impedance change will be the same for both lines, and thus cancelled out.[1] ""

Not really true ... RCA connections are quite ok for short ( less than 1 metre) runs. Balanced is only better for longer runs

@@janinapalmer8368 Agree with you, but my point is still also right. I've had some bad experiences with long RCA cables. I didn't say "only misery". I'm still using RCA cables in some setups with no issues and shorter cables are always better no matter type.
