I commented a few pages back that I was going to modify my stock T1 cable by adding a balanced 4 pin xlr. I finished that two days ago and it was really easy to do. I just wanted to report that in fully balanced mode the T1's do scale up nicely. The soundstage improves with more specific instrument location and detail. The most surprising change is that the tonal quality becomes richer (not thick) with a more musical tonal balance and improved low end. I listen mostly to classical music and with chamber music the balanced T1's are hypnotic. I had listened to them in their stock mode for more than a year so it took me a few hours to get used to the changes. Frankly, I wasn't expecting this much improvement from what I have read. Just thought I would pass this on for anyone considering the move.
