Is it an error to buy a balanced DAC if you only use RCA (SE) ?
Me again, Hope it's not a stupid question.... If I have no intention on going balanced, will I make a mistake by choosing a Balanced DAC ? Also, the Sabre chip, is it only used for balanced DACs ? This should help me narrowing down the DAC I will choose... Thanks- Denys
