Hello all,
In advance: I apologize if this has been discussed before. I did my best to search around on Google & Head-fi, but the discussion on this has been sparse--at least in my findings.
I'm going to be picking up an Oppo HA-1 and I currently have an AD2000 with a dual 3 pin balanced connection. Is there a readily available part to convert the dual 3 pin male XLR pins at the end of my AD2000 headphone cable to a single 4 pin male (so, an adapter that would be dual 3 pin female --> single 4 pin male)? I only see cables meant to convert the 4 pin to dual 3 pin cables. I have seen the part appear in the For Sale section of head-fi, but from no online retailers. One option seems to be converting the dual 3 pins to a single 3 pin, then obtaining a separate adapter for the 3 pin to 4 pin. Would this work? It doesn't seem ideal.
