Thanks Rob.Ouch! Can't connect 1 and 3 to ground, as that will short the negative output. You need need a cable that just uses pins 1 (gnd) and 2 (pos OP) for connecting to a phono.
Good thing I double-checked eh!
So much for the IEC standards etc. Mind you, Neutrik is not a run-by-night brand, so if they do it this way, I bet most others also do it.
