Okay please forgive me for asking this but I have a Fiio K7 with some Hifiman Anandas Stealth plugged into them using a balanced cable.

Does balanced output = better sound or just more power?

I was a bit of a lemming and decided to go balanced because of a youtube review I found for the K7.

Is it just more power or does it sound better or does it depend on the DAC/Amp?

You will notice that balanced / normal are almost identical in distortion, impedance etc. except for power, there the balanced almost doubles.
