Not allways true even in a fully balanced system .
i owned a audio store for 10 years in Europe and had many top
electronics top quality Balanced interconnects trumped the lesser models every time , maybe with what some would call diminishing
returns for example the $2k cables were roughly 5% + better then a similar cables at $1k ,this applied to Every one of at least 4 well
known brands. Noise floor even lower and resolution and separation was just more defined. Equipment too will vary to some extent I used world class Amplifiers and preamps , not fake balanced, like most. Outthere . That have xlr,then wired to same rca grid. True balanced has Transformers input to output.and yes I used Solid state as well as vacuum tube.
