Hi there! I am currently using a ATH-R70x with a FiiO K7 using an adapter that converts the 3.5mm to a 6.35mm. I read a few places online that told me that the 4.4 balanced output from the FiiO K7 is more powerful than the 6.35 output. I also think the cable that came with the R70x is extremely long. In your opinion, should I be thinking about picking up a R70x cable outputting to 4.4? Should I pick up just a shorter 3.5 output cable and continue using the 3.5 to 6.35 adapter?

Balanced amps aren't inherently better than single-ended ones, but if a device has both, you should try to use the balanced one.
