Non-Latching or No Latch Female XLR Connector

Thanks Rodman99999.

I tried that way but the cable won't come out. Maybe it has latch but no release "PUSH" button.

Thank you Rodman99999. Yes, I can see the spring retainer but can't press the spring from outside the box. I opened the cover of the gear and was able to press the spring retainer from inside.

My fundamental question is what is the benefit to install such inconvenient connector. Also what would be the long term solution to this kind of connection.

Thank you Guidocorona as well. But I don't have guts to try that way as I have very clumsy hands. I twisted the same IC cable (Stealth) three times already.

Actually I am a little disappointed in this machine with such connectors as it has a 5-digit price tag on it. I checked the prices of latching and non-latching connectors, the difference is just within $2. It has only 3 such connectors so the total cost difference is under $6.

For a machine targeting 5-digit market and having such inconvenient design is not well designed.

Thank you so much for your inputs and suggestions, Rodman99999.

Happy Listening!

Hi Rodman99999,

I do like the sound from this gear. Unfortunately I am not good at soldering. I am thinking to put the XLR-RCA adopter as temporary solution.

Thanks!

Hi Guidocoroda,

I don't consider it's a problem, just inconvenience. After all, it's an European manufacturer. They just might have different design concept(s) than we have here in USA.

Hi Rodman99999,

With EDGE as amplification and Montana EPX as loadspeakers, I do hope the impact would be minimal as revealation is less critical to my personal taste.

Again, thank you both for your suggestions.

Happy Listening.

Hi Guidocoroda,

Usually I do not post the manufacturer name that I have not positive experiences. After all, it is just my personal limited experience. It might work well in other settings and is fine with the taste of others.

Hi Al,

Thank you for your sincere reminder and detail information. I will try not to do anything unwise to downgrade the benefits of balanced design.

Happy Listening.
