Hi,

I'm thinking about building a DAK Novo. My audio set up is based around http://www.rme-audio.de/en_products_adi_8_ds.php" rel="nofollow - this ADC/DAC box so it would need to connect to two 1/4" balanced jacks. I guess implementing true differential inputs would be overkill here - can I just shunt the ring of the input socket to ground with a 38K resistor (to match what the tip will be seeing)? Also, does anyone know if there's enough physical space in the enclosure to accommodate the larger sockets?

Thanks for reading

TRS plug at "box" end and phono plug at Novo end...

Just wire tip to phono pin and sleeve to phono body.
