    Can't you just use an RCA-RCA cable ? Going balanced to RCA negates the benefit of balanced imho.

    Going from XLR output to RCA input is tricky. There are three (or 4) types of XLR outputs and one adapter won't work for all of them.

    I'm going from a Dared to the Behringer DCX2496. No choice at this moment.

    I got mine from a seller on Audiogon. I can't remember his name, use the search feature and you can probably find him.
    If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

    Nakamichi EC100 Active xover

    Perreaux SA33 class A preamp

    OPPO 83 CDP
    Lehmann audio black cube SE phono pre, Audioquest phono wire (ITA1/1)
    Denon DP-1200 TT. AToc9ML MC cart.
    Monster HTS 3600 power conditioner
    ADS L1590/2 Biamped

    I'm understanding that they're coming out wit a x'over box that will eliminate bi-amping and the need for the Behringer so I won't need the adapters. Thank god I didn't buy any.
