I have owned a Theta Miles (balanced version) and a Cary CD-308 and run/ran both directly to my amps. For me, it is a benefit. You save a ton-o-cash by not needing a pre-amp or extra interconnect cables. I don't notice any lack of dynamics IMS. I also like the lack of clutter in my audio rack!
It works for me.
