I tried running an rca to xlr cable at first and got noise because of the same pin 3 on the ground collar problem.As I think you may have said the mis-match in impedance makes an rca plug a poor conductor of a balanced signal.If you can visualize the junction box as a 5 wire din would I be better off connecting both cable shields and the tonearm ground together here with a single wire to the preamp as oppossed to conecting each cable shield to pin 1 on the preamp side of the cable.
