Balanced to RCA Adapters

Has any Audiogon member utilized an adapter for converting RCA single ended output to Balanced. I seen at Purist Audio website describes these devices--www.puristaudiodesign.com. My primary current setup is cd player direct to amp utilizing balanced output. I would like to connect home theater single ended output for occasional use without purchasing additional separate single ended cables. I wonder if their would be an sound quality issue utilizing these adapters? I think these devices retail for $150.00 a pair. Thanks for any comments.

Does anyone have the web addresses for any of the above mentioned sights? I am looking for female rca - female xlr adaptors for one of my new DAT decks. For the analog it only has balanced inputs and outputs. I need adaptors so I can use it with my normal cables. I figures they would be as easy to find as hitting the local Radio Shack but I was wrong.
