Страница 13: ...Purists will point out that a balanced version of a single ended circuit will experience cancellation of noise and even order components Just so Interestingly the single ended nature of each half of the balanced circuit doesn t give rise to much in the way of odd order distortion and when the even order components and noise are cancelled there isn t much distortion and noise left In any case Balan...
