I do wonder why modern domestic audio equipment doesn't have balanced
inputs nad outputs. Doing so would have added a lot of complexity when
using vavles,, but with op-amps it's trivial. And that would be a serious
way to reduce common-mode effects (like earth loops).
But then I can;t expect Audiophools to understand engineering...

Hmm, since most Valve Amps that permit Power in the 20 Watts range and
upwards are PP Amps, there must not much complexity added to have
differential inputs, there are Phase Splitters that can use both
variants. Only for SE and preamps some Input- and Output transformers
must be added, and that are the expensive things this days...
...finally t simplifies to: who want's to pay a little more to get a

Look at that RCA Jack alone, it is really cheap and it is the source of
many many Problems ... There are really better things out here.
