RE: XLR VS RCA (my experience)

Not sure I will help directly answer your inquiries but I note with my Simaudio Evolution 600i integrated amp. and SuperNova CD player that the use of XLR/balanced is superior to the RCA when using Shunyata (Zitron) Python ICs. The Simaudio is said to be true dual-mono, and is optimized for the same. While I have not measured any FR response, my ears tell me that the amount of resolution is increased and the tonality is remarkably fuller with "balanced"; there is no question about it. I have not used any other brands of cables, however, so am limited in that respect.

I would welcome the chance to listen to the likes of MIT with my set up but do not have a local dealer I am aware of.
