For the Counterpoint to be used with an amplifier that has RCA inputs is it needed a balanced to SE stage?
Could be the + and GND output be used?
Is then needed the GND to be connected to an RCA that is indeed grounded or is it better to be floating?

+ or - (either is ok) OUT and GND to RCA.

Maybe I haven't stated my question clearly.
Should the RCA be isolated from a metal case or is it better to be electrically connected - thus grounding on the case?
Is there any advantage the GND to be real ground (0V referenced to mains earth/ground) or is it better to be floating to avoid also ground loops?
I know using XLR and balanced connections is the best way to go, but some amplifiers are only RCA jacks equipped.

Either is ok, but I prefer to isolate the jacks from the case. So it would be better to say take 0V and VOUT.
