Hi all,
I have a balanced cable from Hifiman (
https://www.hifiman.com/products/detail/180) for Sundara HP. This is supposed to be a balanced cable with 3.5mm TRRS ended plug (amp side). It works fine with most amps and didn't face any issue. Compared to stock cable, it sounds clearer, wider with marginally higher vol gain..
Planning to use this with a Schiit Asgard 3. However, Schiit website mentions not using TRRS plugs and they sell an adapter for TRRS plugs.

Wondering if i can use the balanced cable with Asgard?
Also iv been using the TRRS cable with TRS 6.5mm adapter on the marantz pm5005 HP out at the moment. No SQ or gain related troubles so far, enough gain without distortion. But wondering if this is bad for the amp, as in will it cause grounding, shorting issues?
Appreciate any insights!
