Does anybody know if the Benchmark DAC 1 USB which does have XLR outputs has the "balanced differential circuitry" that Davemitchell refers to? I have an integrated that will accept one XLR input and am thinking about adding the Benchmark. Thanks!
USB DAC balanced or unbalanced inputs?
Can anyone tell me the benefits of running balanced instead of unbalanced (as I am now) when going from my usb dac into my mcintosh mc7300? the unbalanced inputs are rca and the balanced xlr. So, Id be running rca>xlr cable from my dac to the amp. Id love to know what benefits I may get before forking out the $$$ to get a new cable. Thanks in advance.
