ICs with slim RCA Barrels?


My Schiit Jotunheim 2 headphone amp has narrowly-spaced jacks. Don't know what Schiit is thinking. 

Neither Acoustic Zen nor Cardas ICs will fit.

Wondering if there are brands noted for more streamlined barrels....

Wireworld Eclipse 10  are pretty each to use ,good price and very high quality in their latest series. Cables.

Some Schiit designs are hard to reconcile. I have two units in my rack that don’t even have an on/off switch on the front panel, instead they use a TINY toggle switch on the back. VERY difficult to deal with having to reach around back every time! And these are two of their higher-end pieces of kit. Technically , I like their gear, but be aware of some of these design “traits“ before purchasing.

@audioman58 , @dynacohum : thanks for your suggestions.

I agree. Sometimes it seems like they can't make up their minds who their target customer base is. 

 

Lots of vintage gear, like tube amps and tape decks, have obnoxiously close RCA inputs. In these cases, I found Audioquest's older RCA plug design - ala Diamondback, King Cobra, Jaguar, Panther, Cheetah, Leopard - work great, and are very good quality to boot.
