Zen Dac V2: cheap 4.4 to XLR Balanced output cable?

[Bafri]

Im interested of using the Zen Dac V2 as Balanced. The Balanced output of the Dac is 4.4 but i just found the:

ifi Audio 4.4 mm to XLR cable – sym. 4,4 mm Pentaconn to 2 x XLR cable

It costs about 99€, too much. Is there a alternative cable to use it balanced with xlr in the balanced amp?

Looks reasonable to me for about $19 USD

Perfect! Thank you very much

Facing exactly the same problem having just bought the Zen Phono Pre.

What’s with this “exotic” configuration being so expensive!

I found the above link and the estimated delivery to the UK is Dec 23, just under a month.

Did you order from there @Bafri and did it take 4 weeks?
