Sonically, balanced is always superior due to the higher signal ratio and balanced noise cancellation.

Single-Ended or Balanced Digital Question
I have an Accustics Arts Drive 1 transport running to a Musical Fidelity Tri-Vista 21 DAC. I've heard over and over again that the balanced output is a lot better than the single-ended output on the Drive 1. I'm using a Sonoran digital cable, which I chose and replaced my old Stereovox HDXV.
My Question: is there some way to keep the Tri-Vista DAC and achieve better performance via a mod (like Underwood) or a better single-ended digital cable, buy a Genesis Time Lens and run balanced to it and then single-ended to the Tri-Vista, or is the best performance only achieved through a balanced DAC?
Thanks a million, I'm open to any suggestions.
