Accuphase DP-77 & E-550 connection

Hello out there... just bought me a E-550 replacing my old Marantz.... now both my DP-77 SACD player and the E-550 have balanced connections. Not sure if I should use the balanced or the unbalanced scheme. Speakers are the B&W 804S. Any suggestions please? Thanks!

Normally Accuphase gears are quite tricky if connected balanced with other brands due to different XLR pin assignment. As you have complete Accuphase system, you may consider to connect them in balance mode, for sonic benefits and without phasing problem like when use mixed with other brands.
