Which amp?! I own a Sony XA7ES & I use the variable analog
output into my Pass Aleph 3 amp. I use the fixed single ended output into an Adcom GFP750, when I'm using my Rowland Model 2 amp. The Sony does have "balanced" outputs, but they aren't variable, and aren't truly balanced anyway.
I had a Sony 7000 DVD player, & now own a 7700, the XA7ES
beat them both in the bass department-I believe it's because the power supply is more robust. The DVD players did sound as good to me everywhere else, when I tried them in my dedicted 2 channel system.
What else is in your system?
