It will work, but it's going to require more work. The chassis mounted jack would have to be removed, and a short umbilical would have to be added, along with strain relief.
Is it worth it? I guess it depends on whether it is believed (via listening), or could be proven (with a scope) that the XT60 is somehow adds less noise to the DC you're feeding in than a standard DC jack and plug. I've give it some thought, and I don't think I'll be reworking a $1200 phono stage just to find out. I'm going to stick with the CCTV type plug you recommended, and leave the jack alone.
Thanks again.
