I got the cable in a trade. So it didn't cost very much all things considered.The important thing to remember here is that the mini's performance increases as you move to the balanced output.
I think sennheiser simply knows their market lol. "Oh these guys want a special xlr connector on our $20 cable? Sure let's make it and charge 10x the normal price"
And it probably sold well enough! thank god for aftermarket options.

They sure are cashing it in. I reterminated both the HD650 and HD800 cables before and they are ultra thin. Same can be said for the Sony cable on the Z7 and Z1R.
Assuming that the DAC MFR doesn’t do anything special on the XLR side of thing. IMO. Many DAC MFRs tend to make sure that the XLR sounds better than the RCA output.
Aren’t there specific benefits to a balanced dac implementation? Such as lower noise floor or less crosstalk? I seem to remember Jason Stoddard explaining it before. Beyond me but it made sense when I read it. Now balanced amps are something different entirely.

Now have a balanced S3 from Trevor so when timing comes together will get to hear for my self how good my 4z can really sound. Although right now with my GL Mk2 and Hugo 2, and Solvine cable, I am not exactly slumming either.
