I dunno man, im not 100sure, and wouldnt you rather go xlr>xlr, ori guess either way, youre gonna have to get something, like a y-adapter to connect either xlr>1/8" for the jb3 input OR a y-adapter w/ 1/4">1/8" for the jb3 end!

if you're going straight into the jb3, you'll want to end with a 1/8" stereo.  I've got a 1/4" female to 1/8" stereo cable that I use.  The audio technica's actually come apart (1 screw) and I've contemplated making my own interconnects that go XLR line transformer -> RCA to go into the sbm-1.  You could also make it 1/8"    If you can find, and buy xlr-xlr line transformers, they'll more than likely be more expensive, and then you still need to go from the xlr-1/8"   I'd skip that step if possible.  XLR connectors aren't that cheap.

I think I'm gonna hit the rat shack in the morning.  After work I'll tape off the stereo and do a head to head with and without.  for $30.00 why not?  I'll keep you posted
