    this is the one I got and hence why I was asking about the work around for balanced outputs, I have hifiman ananda nanos so though it was worth it, I got it way cheaper off eBay so I cant complain on price

    So you're looking for balanced headphone outputs, right? The RME ADI-2 Pro FS has them (using the two front outputs). As for your model, I'm not sure. You'll need to check the manual to see if that option is available. The rear outputs are intended for speakers, not sure if they can be used for headphones.

    I don't think you can do that. If your Nanos come with a 3.5 mm jack and the volume is loud enough for you then all is good. Otherwise sell it and buy something with a 4.4 mm balanced output.
