It was at this exact moment that Jason realized he needs Tributaries to make him a FIg. 8 power cable. :D

I'm curious whether going balanced will make a difference...my understanding is that the MHA-200 is not a balanced topology...rather that the XLR inputs and outputs are summed (Jason please correct me if I'm wrong...) But this still should allow for long interconnect runs - which is still nice...

It’s not full differential but it is phase inverted balanced. We will be doing a video tomorrow to help answer many questions

Beautiful.
Maybe some day I'll try one just for the looks.
Too Bad it wasn't released last year.

Can you also test something along the lines of a LCD-4

checked that yesterday. You know me, I don’t participate in opinion other than quality of build. The MHA200 had no problem effectively and satisfactorily driving the LCD4.
