Considering switching to XLR cables,

Unless the equipment is actually true balanced differential there is no reason to use XLR’s . As an example I have a Mark Levinson no.585.5 amp that is balanced. But my DAC is a Chord Dave. Even though my Dave has XLR outputs it’s not balanced (per Rob Watts) so using XLR’s is pointless. BTW I use Audience FrontRow Reserve interconnects

My system is exclusively XLR, except where it’s impossible—like my turntable and tube preamp, which use RCA. For cables, I use Mogami with Neutrik connectors. You can build or buy them pre-made; the pricing is very reasonable.

My thinking is simple: if it’s good enough for professional studios, it’s good enough for me. There’s no need to spend $4500 on XLRs with carbon fiber shells and silk-wrapped cables. I’d rather use well-engineered, proven cables with top-tier commercial-grade connectors—nothing flashy, just reliable and built to perform.

Virtually every cable I use, which are considerable, are XLR. I use them mainly because I have long runs. There are some instances where the output is doubled. I have used and don’t hear any difference between them. 

The morgami platnum are heaver gauge.excellent quality.xlr will give you a 6 db increase in sound level .has 3 wires and does not use the shield as ground like rca. Make sure the xlr are 3 wire .my mcintosh are cardus star 4 wire as the use the 4th wire to ground only source to lower floor noise.another great of xlr is long runs don't cause much voltage drop as rca does. So you can run xlr long to a monoblock amp near your speaker then short speaker cables helping sound quality. Resistances increase over length of wire but more effect ins heard in long runs of speaker wire.i am a believer in thick gauge wire. I like it so much I don't buy anything without balanced xlr. Enjoy the search.

You won't hear a difference at all.
