The improvement that balanced connection makes , ceteris paribus, is that there is better rejection of parasitic noise e.g. EMI, RFI. This may or may not be a benefit depending upon your particular circumstances.Moving from a theoretic view to practical experience, the ultimate effect upon sound quality depends upon the success of the implementation of the balanced circuitry at both ends by the circuit designer(s) concerned. This can be unpredictable in practice. So if it is better or worse in reality will mainly be a suck it and see situation. I even have a preamp where the balanced input is inferior sounding to the balanced output ( when compared to the single ended connections)!
