Your search for enlightenment is over, my son...they are the same.
There are presently (unless & until Nelson posts a new one) two "Zen" preamps: the original Bride of Zen, which is unbalanced, and the Bride of Son of Zen, which is balanced. Due to the length of the name and the fact that most of us are lazy typists, the balanced preamp is frequently referred to as BOSOZ, or the Balanced Zen, or sometimes simply Balanced Preamp.

More questions
Gentlemen:
Thanks for the help. In addition to the preamp, I would like to build an amp (or pair of amps as the case may be) to go with it. Do you have a recommendation (Son of Zen, Aleph, or other non Pass design)? Keep in mind I am "electronically challenged" (I have put together Bottleheads' Paramour amps and Foreplay preamp, so I am "educable")
Thanks again (and Happy Holidays!!)
