I'm in the middle of getting cables, want balanced for LC and also for Pono. Have to be sure about the balanced out on the LC, it's the Ray Samuels mini connector, correct? No full size connector?

It's the RSA as well as the 4-pin XLR. So you can either get RSA cables or get a 4-pin XLR to ____ adapter. I personally have a Norne 4-pin XLR to 2.5mm TRRS adapter that allows me to play my K10's balanced from any amp with a balanced XLR headphone jack. Maybe you could get an XLR 4-pin to dual 3.5mm TRS for your Pono?
Cheers
Still trying to decide whether to use the Neutrik 4-pin XLR or go with something else with my cables.
I asked this question a bit ago and the consensus was to go with Neutrik 4-pin XLR for full-size headphones and RSA for IEMs.
The XLR is a bigger, more sturdy connector overall, and RSA is angled and can be awkward for a full-size headphone. It'll still work, but it's mostly size-related. You don't want a giant XLR connector on a small earphone, but the straight and sturdy XLR is good for full-size.
XLR outputs are also much more common than RSA, so you gain flexibility with that connector.

And this to make an adapter so I can still use the headphones with TRS:

Hey gents, I know that many of you are anxious to know where things stand. Please give me a few more days to gather more concrete info. At this point in the process I don't want to speculate for you all, but have the best data that I can get.
Thanks.
The most recent estimate (a week or two ago) was that they'll start shipping in September sometime because there was a delay with one of the parts suppliers. We haven't gotten any updates since, but I suspect that's simply because they're waiting for the parts to come in before giving us an updated timeline.
