some of you might remember my thread on cool-looking jacks <link > from a few weeks back.
i was having trouble finding Neutrik jacks without the metal push-tab, doobooloo metion it wasnt possible to get the tabless verson in the US. he was right, after countless hours of search i was about to give up.
then i email Neutrik USA requesting for an sample, the salesmen/saleswomen was extremely nice and helpful. after a week i got a tabless combo jack in the mail free of charge
this jack looks very cool, fully plastic body but dosen't look cheap. plugs fits tightly with a loud click
here are a few more pictures:

now here's the problem, now i realized this jack wont look very symmetrical on my current on-going DIY amp, i havnt order the enclosure yet, but i know exactly what i want. like usual, i have made a 3d model to advoid any mistakes.
this is where i need you guys' help
should i forget about being symmetrical and use this jack? or should i do with a "hole-type" jack to balance out the LED hole?
should i.....
Stick with Neutrik combo:
or...
go with a smaller, more "hidden" jack?
any input would be greatly appreciated it
