In fact, there's really no such thing as a "balanced cable" per se - there's cable that's wired so it can be used to make balanced connections and to preserve proper balancing you need to use it but the balanced/unbalanced property itself is actually determined by the device the cable is plugged into at each end.

Thanks Steve, well aware of that. Should have put balanced as *balanced* :)
Cheers.
