I have a dacmagic on the way and I'll be using one set of outputs from my speaker to my pot to the RCAs, and the other remaining out put is XLRs.
I plan to buy a headphone amp and use an XLR to RCA cable to feed it . . . will this be a good idea? Should I return my RCA pot and get an XLR pot and output my speakers directly to that output instead, while reserving the RCA out on the DAC for a future Headphone amp?
All this is coming down to is:
Is there a degradation in quality regarding RCA to XLR cables?
That's my biggest concern, otherwise I'd rather keep my setup the way it is because the RCA pot is more flexible (ipod in, other DACs which omit XLR, etc.)
