I am sure different companies components might act differently… it is all in the implementation of what ever is converted.
Yep, as always seems to be the case regarding audio performance, implementation rules! Common mode noise rejection is an advantage for a balanced signal path. Yet a very strong case is made for the simplicity and fewer parts approach of well designed single ended components. Some are capable of exquisite sound quality.
In my opinion you have to judge on an individual component/ audio system basis.
