jabbr Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Not sure your budget but a truly inexpensive yet decent DAC is Behringer eg UMC202HD — I entirely agree that XLR is way to go. Custom room treatments for headphone users. Link to comment

So you admit there are bad DACs! I’ll take a good DAC with XLR outputs thank you ? Superdad and lucretius 2 Custom room treatments for headphone users. Link to comment

Which do you consider bad? — just curious — and on SQ basis or technical basis or cost etc? 1 hour ago, mansr said: The best DAC within a specific budget may well have only single-ended outputs. It also depends a lot on how it will be used. Sure. Trade offs in real world. The OP wants balanced which is fine. I have no issue with RCA in low noise environments.
