It IS neutral and transparent.
I am using it with the Chord Hugo - and I can feel more air and soundstage opened up with my Elear compared to Hugo direct.
The RCA/XLR are inputs.
Out is headphones (not balanced) 3/4 and 1/4
As a bonus - the volume dial is very smooth and there is no channel balance difference in lower volumes (which drove me insane on the iFi amp)
