RE: Balanced Headphone outputs?

There are also balanced connectors on an xlr and a 4.4mm connector. The idea is that the amp/dac must be balanced and the balanced connector separates grounds. Its a bit different than balanced in line level connections where noise is cancelled.

Some say it makes a difference, and others not so much.

To get the benefits the chain needs to be balanced all the way through.
