NAIM PCB pins

[Ayejaybe]

Hi all, I am looking for 10 or so replacement gold Pcb mini spade pins and edge connectors for boards in my Naim NAC 72 Amplifier. Does anyone please know where I can find them? (I’m based in UK / Europe). I’ve hunted everywhere unsuccessfully so far. Thanks for your help. Adam

Don't know but those pins have too little solder to mechanically support them well I fear. Parts like this without part numbers on them are always difficult, a BOM would be the ideal source of information, good luck.

Manufacturer was Tyco, now TE Connectivity.

Thanks for that- I’d seen Tyco /TE elsewhere but not registered they were the manufacturers. I’ll contact them next week and see what they say.

Thanks Mark. Yes I agree they look flimsy - I’ll have to see what options there are depending on whether I can find original connectors.

Seemingly the old ordering codes AMPMODU 141009-3 (pins) and AMP 141402-3 (sockets)
do no longer apply or the items are no longer in production.

 

[Ayejaybe]

Thanks for the codes. I’ll post back how I get on!

Check Ebay 201939488048 - but seller does not reply to inquiries about the pins.

I might have some in one of my spares boxes on old naim cards. I'll have a look later and let you know. It will take a while to find the right box !

Hi @Zeta4. Thank you that would be amazing. I didnt manage to get anywhere with TE last week, I did find some unpopulated 322 cards on eBay though which would work if I can’t find any. Hi there @as_audio. Thanks too for your message. I followed up with someone on eBay selling upgraded Naim cards about whether he had any pins available, but the Minimum order was 500.

10 fresh connectors for less than 4 $ are out of your price range ?

 

[Ayejaybe]

@as_audio Right, so I have found these now on US eBay but they are not “findable” through uk eBay site. I will continue to try and make them appear, and order a set. Thanks again for your help!

Shipment cost may be prohibitive unless you know somebody in USA
