XLR TO XLR-RCA ADAPTER

One thing you might consider. If you use adapters, use them at the XLR end. I've found that RCA jacks can be too closely spaced to allow the XLR adapters to fit.

I prefer the adapters over the RCA to XLR IC's. Purest Audio Designs make very fine adaptors.

Why do you prefer adapters? For sound quality or convenience? I use them for the latter, only.

I ran the Cardas adapters into the balanced input on my JC1s. The sound was slightly more extended and detailed but after a few weeks I went back to all single ended. All single ended works much better in my system. Im glad I tried it but it was kind of a waste of $75.00. Tonal balance is much better single ended. I am using Vandersteen subs and single ended mod 5 x overs though. I cant help but wonder if I had balanced x overs if I might get better results. Good luck.
