So I just got the massdrop thx 789 amp which I am plan to connect to the SMSL SU-8 DAC for a balanced connection. However I am completely lost at how to connect it.
So do I have to use a dual XLR female to dual RCA cable to connect it? By plugging the dual XLR female to the SMSL SU-8 then the dual RCA end and connect it to the back of the Amp . Or do I use a dual XLR female to XLR male cable splitter that is connected to the SMSL SU-8 and connect the XLR male side of the cable to a XLR female to dual XLR male cable that is connected to the AMP for it to be balanced? Because if I did it the first way then I thought my connection wouldn't be balanced because its a dual XLR female to dual RCA not dual XLR female to dual XLR male
