ETA: Here's a video from Rivera Amps with Brian Swerdfeger (fmr VP of Sales for Taylor) discussing the T5 balanced system:

Gutch;

I spoke directly with one of the techs at Taylor about this... and his comment was that using a balanced cable with the T5 would not gain you anything, that the T5 was designed to be used with a standard 1/4" guitar cord...

If he was mistaken, I stand corrected... but the truth is, I don't even know of a guitar amp that has a balanced input anyway... and then you have to deal with any pedals in the signal chain... I suppose if one were using the T5 as an ACOUSTIC guitar, into a mixing board or acoustic amp, then there would be a bonus for the TRS cable... otherwise, not so much...
