pass-through output of one channel to the XLR input of another channel on the same amplifier, or of another amplifier with true balanced inputs. The pass-through output does not convert unbalanced sources to a true balanced signal. If you wish to drive an unbalanced amplifier from the pass-through outputs, you will need to use XLR-to-RCA adapters.
