Balanced connections are extremely important in audio recording and production because they allow for the use of very long cables without the introduction of outside noise. The most common balanced connector is the 3-pin XLR, which is used with microphones because of its durable construction. Many microphones have low impedance (Z), which makes long microphone cables susceptible to some forms of outside noise, and a perfect application for a balanced line, which cancels out this outside noise.A balanced audio connection has three wires. Two of these are used for the signal, and the third is a ground and is used to shield the other two. The signal is the difference between the two signal lines. Much of the noise induced in the cable is induced equally in both signal lines, so this noise can be easily rejected by using a differential amplifier or a balun at the input.
If the power amplifiers of a public address system are located at any distance from the mixing desk, it is also normal to use balanced lines for the signal paths from the mixer to these amplifiers. Many other components, such as graphic equalisers and effects units, have balanced inputs and outputs to allow this. In recording and for short cable runs in general, a compromise is necessary between the noise reduction given by balanced lines and the noise and distortion introduced by the extra circuitry they require.
While XLR connections are the most common balanced connector, 1/4" TRS (Tip Ring Sleeve) connectors are also commonly used.

In telecommunication, a balanced line is a transmission line consisting of two conductors in the presence of ground, capable of being operated in such a way that when the voltages of the two conductors at all transverse planes are equal in magnitude and opposite in polarity with respect to ground, the currents in the two conductors are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.See also balanced audio connector.
Note: A balanced line may be operated in an unbalanced condition. Synonym balanced signal pair.

Equilibrium or balance is any of a number of related concepts in the sciences and social sciences. In general, a system is said to be in a state of equilibrium if all influences on the system are cancelled by the effects of others. A related concept is stability; an equilibrium may or may not be stable.Some specific examples are:
An addiction is any of various forms of unbalanced behavior.
- Chemical equilibrium, the state in which a chemical reaction proceeds at the same rate as its reverse reaction, resulting in no net change in the amount of each compound.
- Mechanical equilibrium, also known as static equilibrium, the state of a body at rest or in uniform motion in which the sum of all forces acting on the body equals zero.
- Physical balance of humans and animals is maintained with the aid of the sense of balance, and in special cases with a balance beam.
- See also the weighing instrument balance.
- Thermodynamic equilibrium, the state of a system in which its internal processes cause no net change in its macroscopic properties (such as temperature and pressure).
- In economics, static equilibrium and general equilibrium
- Nash equilibrium in game theory, an optimum strategy for all players in a game, in the sense that no one player can benefit by changing his strategy while all other players keep theirs the same.
- Reflective equilibrium in ethics, a state in which the consequences of one's general principles are consistent with one's opinions about individual cases.
- For individuals and organisations a balance between income and expenses is often important, especially in the long run.
- Psychologically some balance between desires and satisfaction is important; somewhat paradoxically complete satisfaction may not be ideal, it can be argued that perhaps it is better if things are left to be desired.
- In various practical matters an equilibrium is useful, e.g.:
- in a conversation, between talking and listening;
- in a personal relationship, between giving and taking;
- between buying and reading books (apart from lent books).
In electricity, a balanced signal is also called a differential signal.
