Actually not quite correct. In a true balanced set up the signal goes between the plus and minus and not referenced to ground.
From Ralph in an old OTL post -
"But what the standard calls for is that ground should be ignored. This eliminates hum and buzz as well as cable artifacts. But to do that the output of the preamp must occur between pins 2 and 3 of the XLR and have nothing to do with ground (which is pin 1)"
You can do what the OP wants but it will be referenced to gound and one signal must be 180 out of phase.
