Analog Out for Wadia RCA, or XLR?

I own an 850. I did a shootout over a year ago, same question. FJS is right, XLR won hands down. RCA is somehow subtractive. BTW I found the Madrigal CZGel too polite. I use a silver Goertz cable that I bought on audiogon - very natural and spatially correct!

Hi 59burst, I have a Wadia 830. I have run both types of connects and the XLR run directly to the amp (Aragon 8008BB) is much better. I hear things I didn't know were on the CD. The difference is worthwhile for the extra cost of XLR over RCA. I used Transparent super cables.
