Now we know why the maker was badmouthing the other portable amps.

I thought phase-splitters were used to generate a balanced signal from a non-balanced one, not the other way around. Couldn't it just use 2 of the 4 dac chips to get an SE output?   Quote: Originally Posted by...

Do you guys notice any difference in the balanced vs. single-ended output from the parasound 1600HD? The balanced out seems to be clearer sounding on my speaker system, but it's hard to say because I have to volume match by ear.

A super long shot.   Looking to buy a pair of the classic Cicada speakers. Payment by USPS money order. Shipping destination is 08820, but I would be willing to come pick up within ~200 miles.   FOUND.
