New Head-Fier
Edit: I realize the XRI out are not headphone outs and are DAC only. I will use the unbalanced headphone output.
------------------
Hi everyone. I took the plunge and picked up the S.M.S.L M500 this weekend.
I have never had an amp/DAC with a balanced output before, so I need some advice on how to pick cables to run into my Beyerdynamic Amiron Home headphones.
The balanced output on the unit is a left and right 3pin XLR and my headphones have a 3.5mm input. Beyerdynamic confirmed they can be recabled for balanced outs.
But my question is do I just buy two separate male 3pin xlr to 3.5mm interconnects? Most of those seem to be microphone cables etc., and I can't find something that looks like people are using for a similar application. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
