Enclosed amplifier recommendations

[dclapp]

I would like to build a solid state amplifier with the power supply in a separate enclosure. What do you recommend that I use for jacks and interconnect cables?

Old mic cable plugs are OK. I prefer the Cooper 86 series or the good old Amp series 1, 2 and 3 or 97. I have also used DB25's as I have lots of them. Multi-pins per lead of course. Check Newark, Allied, Mouser, Digi-Key and of course whatever is on sale from All-Electronics.

I prefer to use wire for the cable

See kajaco for very high quality wire by the foot, 18 gauge up. Build the cable to need. Or if you are as cheap as I am, cut up a standard extension cord as a 25 foot 16 ga made up cord is cheaper than buying the bulk wire. Even 12ga.
