ARe you sure that ground center would be good? Metal cased equipment
wouldnt' be a problem with positive current on the sleeve? I'm also
thinking that you have a much easier element to design with center
positive plugs, because the jack dosen't have to be isolated from the
case. You know like the kind with the knurled collar that screws on?
