− | So, for taking profit of the stereo connector that should be a mono balanced input but it's not balanced at all, you better get a stereo unbalanced input by connecting both audio channels to the connector. The problem is that the 3 wires Dupont connector included in official kit doesn't allow to do it easily. You have to cut the second wire (red or white) and solder a single Dupont connector, connecting it to the pin 5 on the Hifiberry.
