    Topping PA3s, any difference between the balanced vs unbalanced input?

    Is anyone out there using their PA3s single ended? I'm curious if anyone can speak to any differences in quality/power when feeding the PA3s from an RCA input. I'm planning on pairing a PA3s with an unbalanced DX3 Pro+, and I'm wondering if it would be worth it to pick up a balanced dac.

    Buzzing power amp (Sherwood AM-8500) [UPDATE: Now measuring]

    Hi, I found this amp a couple of months ago for what seemed like a very good price.
