balanced vs. unbalanced leads - a novice in need of advice!

Hi!
Sorry for the oh so simple nature of my question, but I am very new to all
of this!
Basically, I want to connect my digital piano to my Korg D3200 via the
pianos' stereo outputs. The leads don't have to be that long, but am I still better going
for balanced cables rather than unbalanced?
I appreciate any help you can give
to a novice!
Cheers,
Pim

First of all are the outputs of the piano balanced? and are the inputs of what you're
going to balanced?

It's a fair bet the piano outputs are unbalanced, but check the manual.
If they
are balanced, and if the Korg has balanced inputs, then use balanced cables, they will be
better. But otherwise, especially for short runs, unbalanced should be fine.

Guilty
as charged I'm afraid, and still got Tull posters stuck to the walls which I won't shift
unless I want to pull the plaster off with them
