Digital XLR vs Digital RCA


How would a digital XLR 110 ohm cable compare to a more costlier Silver 75 ohm RCA cable? I will do the comparison between the two myself and post my results but I thought I would ask for other people’s experience between these two types of cables.

I was told by someone who designs high-end DACs that a balanced digital cable is preferable to single ended and that if only RCA connections are available it’s still better to use a balanced cable with RCA adapters.  I have no technical understanding of why this would be but just thought I’d pass it on FWIW.
