XLR vs RCA output of DSj

There’s a whole thread on this topic. RCA vs XLR
My experience is the XLR output is clearer, more detailed, and more exciting sounding than RCA, having the levels adjusted of course. This should be the case regardless of headphone or speakers. I also have the Audeze LCD-3’s. Very musical sounding headphones.
Unless you have the top tier silver cables, silver generally has more upper frequency emphasis. It allows more highs in proportion to the lower frequencies to go through. The more expensive silver cables neutralizes this effect somehow and just makes everything sound smooth and exciting.
