Truely balanced the better design?


My cd player is a truly balanced design and so is my pre amp.
Now I might have plans to upgrade my preamp in the near future, but this particular pre amp I would like to buy does not have balanced in and outputs.
I always felt that I get a better performance, if I went balanced compared to single ended.
If my cd player is balanced and my pre-amp single ended, would I loose performance or not?
Of course my cd palyer has single ended in and outputs also.

Which EC amps and speakers do you own and which pre-amp of course?
I really like the Electrocompaniet stuff, I love their CDP and will consider it for a future upgrade.
Do you monoblock? I would like to learn more about their amps. Since I have the big Martin Logan ELS Prodigy, I need amps with have enough "juice" to drive my speakers. I cannot do with rather lean amps.
So some input about the Electrocompaniet amps would be greatly appreciated.
