RE: rca to xlr

Thank you all for your help! I need to clarify. I am building a tube phono amplifier. I would like to make it XLR out to connect to my pre amp. From what I have read I only need to use a female XLR connector and hook it with pin 1 chassis ground, pin 2 +, pin 3 -? I also have the chassis grounded to house and circuit. Would this be the best way? Also I have a dumb question that will help me tie this all together. Is a balanced signal just a single ended signal with the chassis grounded? I am confused as I thought that a balanced signal was different. Thanks you.
