    Advantage: you can use whatever fancy RCA-RCA interconnnect you like
    Disadvantage: you introduce an additional plug/socket interface.

    If you go down this route, check that pin1 of the XLR is connected to pin 3 (not pin2), otherwise the amplifier will invert the signal.
    Says pins 1 and 3 are negative/grounded, pin 2 positive. Is that ok?

    The adapter is already wired for purpose.....no. 2 pin / hot goes to the positive conductor of the rca connector (centre pin)...the other 2 (pins 1 and 3 neg/ground)go to the negative conductor of the rca connector....

    Yes. I have a couple of such adaptors somewhere, but can't find them at the moment, otherwise I could confim the connection.

    (I see Alan has already do so. )
