AW: To earth, or not to earth...

[Paul Perry]

This balanced/unbaslanced thing might be a bit Quixotic...
after all, there is a hell of a lot of modular stuff out there
produced over the years and I havn't noticed any of it suffering
from hum pickup or crosstalk to any degree (OK the switch matrix
on the ARP2500 does, but that is a different thing). Most of this
gear has suffers more from IC noise  in my experience...
Which makes me think that just using commercially tried construction 
methods and layout might be all that is needed, or worth doing.
