Thank you once again!3 pin XLR may not be balanced, so triple check your amp specs before you do anything (or, if it's double XLR I may be wrong).
In terms of BOM you would need:
Google 3.5mm pinout, solder the wires accordingly and then ensure the wiring on the 2.5mm side is corresponding to what the AMP expects, i.e. L+ to L+, L- to L-, etc. It's a trivial job for anyone with decent soldering skills.
- 2.5mm connector
- 4 wires or 4-wire cable of your preferred length
- XLR connector (or 2 x XLR if the amp has double XLR input)
Man, Qudelix should make and sell these cables. Im sure quite a few people would want to use the 5k as a dedicated desktop DAC. Would also be cool with the Chrome extension to load different headphone profiles, etc.
However, I may just buy the Topping D10 USB. I would have to pull out the 5k to use portable or buy another one. The d10 with cables would be a little more but it seems to get good reviews.
