The MicroDAC does not have balanced outs so this setup will not be truly balanced.

If you want to avoid upgraditis, my advice is to audition gear that you can afford and decide what is best for you. There are some people who prefer the MicroDAC sound over the Benchmark even though it is considerably cheaper. And there's no guarantee that you will find running a balanced setup is worth the extra cash involved over a traditional setup.

"better sq" is very subjective. Only you can decide what is "better" for you.
