Hi and thank you for taking the time to help me.

setting up new Marantz 7704 processor and noticed that there is a balanced & unbalanced connection for subwoofer but my sub does not have a balanced (it has its own amp-vandersteen sub). However, each of the other speakers will be connected to their own mono block via the balanced connection. I was under the impression that all the speakers should connected via the same approach--all balanced or all unbalanced. am I missing something or can I connect the sub via unbalanced and the remaining speakers with balanced?

Yes, you can use unbalanced to the sub.
