Is there advantage to balanced phono-preamp

I'm currently using VPI Aries. Is there an advantage to a
phono-preamp that runs in balanced mode.

All I can say, is with my BAT VKP10SE, which has a balanced input section, using a din to XLR cable gives a quieter, more deatailed presentation than a din to RCA tonarm cable. For me and my setup, it helps. Not huge, but noticable.
