Thanks, 16.
Given the basis of this thread, which was using XLR-to-RCA and then RCA-to-phono plug adaptors to drive *any* headphone from a DAC's XLRs, I was actually trying to eliminate the RCA part. Your answer (which always seem viable) did confirm the diff I was looking for, so I think I'll try:
XLRleft pin 2 to phono plug tip connection
XLRleft pin 1 to phono plug sleeve
XLRright pin 2 to phono plug ring connection
XLRright pin 1 to phono plug sleeve
