Its generally not recommendable to hook up a fully balanced phono system with RCA connectors because the negative node is thereby fully exposed on the barrel of the RCA connector i.e. not shielded, this can have severely negative effects. Most common hook up scheme is pin2 positive pin 3 negative and pin 1 chassis ground - signal ground should not be connected to pin 1.
We make mostly fully balanced phono stages with only XLR connectors on them. Even our little gem the Liberty B2B-1 is supplied with XLR connectors if one should wish to run a fully balanced phono system, obviously needing two of them in this configuration.
Good Listening
