Will this work with a Stax SRM 323S?

The Okto DAC8 is meant to be used with balanced gear. The Stax SRM accepts only RCA inputs. So I would rather recommend something like smsl m500 (variable rca out) or any other fixed RCA out DAC.

Thank you for your answer. Would the SMSL M400 also work with the 323S? I am looking at the rear of the unit and see what looks like RCA inputs. Since this unit is also highly regarded on this site, this might be an option for my situation.

I will amend my previous statement. My goal is to get this particular DAC. My current set-up is a Stax SR 507 with a Stax SRM 323S. I first want to get a Stax SR 009 and keep the 323S, then eventually replace the energizer with, perhaps this unit:
It looks like it has balanced inputs (please let me know if it has).
THEN, I will get this DAC. So I will hold off on getting this DAC and make no compromises which I would have to do with the 323S.
