    Worth noting that while the DAC is balanced, the circuitry of the SP200 amp (that is normally paired with this DAC) is only single ended. It has a balanced output but the signal is single ended.

    If pairing with a different amp, I believe this would be fully balanced.

      yeah there's some debate about whether preamps dacs poweramps etc. are really fully balanced designed or its just balanced output hacked on for convenience

      be that as it may it means you have no interference and that can only be good
