Just a thought here but,,,,,,xlr adapters?

My OPPO UDP205 used as a DAC has XLR output sockets. the rca outputs are currently being used.

My Revox B-77 has RCA inputs and outputs.

My pre-amp Audio Research SP-9 MK III, RCA inputs

Recording speed, 7 1/2 ips. 10 inch reels.

I was thinking of XLR adapters for the Revox's input / output to help with tape noise not so much from the dac but to the pre amp.

Any thoughts? suggestions? constructive criticisms?
