Delivery Source wanted for this Cinch female Connectors in special Outline

[tiefbassuebertr]

I want an order address for showed cinch female connectors in special outline, i. e. with additional solder lead for GND connection - go to the attachement (top view of a class-A unity gain preamp based on Andrea Ciuffoli's Power Follower).

The used cinch connectors are from WBT (early 80's) and from this company no longer available since a long time.

Thank you for advices.

Update: WBT tells me by phone, that the follow jacks are the successors:

But there are no two-pin RCA sockets as used in the preamp from post #1 (first image).

Good summary, excerpt hifizubehoer24.de which I really can not recommend, they did not ship after payment and did not answer on request. At least I would say, it is in everyones own responsibility.

T-722G Cinch Male Connector (Jack) wanted for 8-9mm shielded Wire

any news ?

In the moment I want to have the second connector from the attached image (from Monacor catalog K39) ?
No longer available from Monacor.
Who know the name of manufacturer or a supplier of exact this model?
Thank you for an advice.

Again I need a replacement (T-722G - second plug of the first attached image)

Are tere any actual recommendations for these type of connectors in Germany / Europe if you do not want to break the bank?

Maybe these ones?
https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/rca-...-rca-inlet-ptfe-isolated-red-unit-p-3432.html
I want to solder them directly to the PCB, so do I get it right that I could create a footprint for them, place them plane on the PCB and solder them?
I wonder how to scratch free screww them than to the housing...is there a way without a special tool?

Or better then these?
https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/rca-sockets/eizz-ez-102-gold-plated-24k-rca-inlet-pair-p-9893.html

But I'm not sure how to solder ground then propperly to the PCB...

Or have these actual a screwable mounting connection for GND as well?
Long ebay link

Or are the Aliexpress "CMC-style" any good?
Seems like they are even better to screw with the notches.

Honestly, I normally go with the Rean nys367but the soldering part is key for me.
I do not belive in "good sounding jacks". I just want to have them robust, good to install, good grip for the plug and low resistance on the connection in the end.

Thank you and regards,
Felix

 

[jean-paul]

Robust and Aliexpress are eachothers opposites.

Converted to balanced a while ago after decades of RCA. Best decision ever with regards to connectors and topology. In XLR Neutrik does a very good job. And to minimize external cabling to a minimum also helps so not separate pre and power amplifiers but integrated amplifiers. The less cabling and connectors the better it is and this in all aspects.

XLR also does not suffer as much as RCA from the audio jewelry syndrome (i.e. that the connectors are more expensive than the circuits). Audio jewelry is just good business.

 

[Crix1990]

I'm with you that Aliexpress is like a lottery when it comes to components (and it seems like there are a few different versuons around).
But I had already ordered a lot of connector stuff there over the years, and I was always happy.

About the audio jewelry syndrome, I agree.
Honestly about 5€ per jack / plug is my sweetspot.
(There is a dealer in the netherlands that asks more than 50€ per pair of CMC 805-2,5.)
And if it does not come to a special look or need, I also agree on Neutrik / Rean or maybe Hicon.
More is not needed.

Regards,
Felix

Because of dead links (except the first) I updated post #1
I am still looking for a cinch-RCA plug for the no longer available "T-722G" from Monacor in post #5

 

[jean-paul]

One can upgrade from RCA jewelry that excels specifically in looking good (photo models on the catwalk) to pro XLR connectors and enjoy the practical and technical benefits. Function over form.

Pin 1 can be abused for non standard extra GND connection or one can go balanced the right way and use pin 1 for shielding. Warning: there is no going back after that and you will for sure regret not having done it earlier on.

Another possibility is to abandon any standard and upgrade to Lemo. Best looking photo models on the catwalk but with brains.

 

[merlin el mago]

I used these RCA, are robust, very good quality and not expensive.

Concerning new diy projects you are absolutely right.
Linn had also considered the same issues in 1986/1987 and actually opted for the XLR standard (ITT/Cannon at those days) for their first models LK1 and LK2/280 (but with a L+R assignment for PIN 2+3 contrary to the studio standard for hot and cold for the inputs).
However, due to the adapter solutions always required in case of mixing with other brands, the decision was made to return to the Cinch/RCA standard for later models.
