Topic: XLR vs. RCA
I currently connect ADI 2 DAC using RCA to my amplifier. Lovely sound! I am looking at a higher powered amplifier with XLR input. I have read some materials suggesting that XLR will provide no benefit over RCA unless both the sender (DAC) and the receiver (amp) are fully balanced internally throughout. Can anyone provide any insight into this topic? e.g. will I perceive a sonic improvement is the DAC is balanced and the amp is not?
