The input and outputs of the EQX20 are balanced on both XLR and 1/4" TRS jack connectors. For balanced input and outputs, connections to the unit should be wired as follows:

TRS jack-10dBV

Tip

Hot (signal +)

 

Ring

Cold (signal -)

 

Sleeve Screen (signal ground)

For un-balanced operation join Ring and Sleeve on input, output or both

For un-balanced operation join pins 1 and 3 on input, output or both

 

PUSH

Pin 2 = Hot (+)

Pin 1 = Screen

Pin 3 = Cold (-)

The 20kΩ input impedance of both inputs is suitable for most types of equipment.

Plugging a mono jack lead into the TRS input will effectively un-balance the signal connection.
