You won't really lose anything. The soundstage that opened up was due to balanced being 6db louder than single ended, you'd just have to turn the single ended preamp louder to match. We perceive louder as better, always.
Balanced is great for long, long runs, otherwise for typical in home usage you wont notice anything else besides the free 6db gain.
I had the DeHavilland Ultraverve, it's fantastic.
