Cheap, good, balanced. Pick two.

I've never heard a balanced system, but heard a lot of good things about it and that's why I want to try it out. I was trying to find the cheapest way, but still have some quality. The Headroom Desktop Balanced stock with Desktop module is the same price as the Headroom Desktop Single Ended with Max module, both with the Stepped Attenuator, are the same price? Would the Balanced with Desktop module sound better than the Desktop Single Ended with Max module? |
