@cleeds - Take a look at KLE Innovations line of rca’s - there are five models to suit any budget This is their entry model KLE Innovations Classic Harmony, Sonic Craft Shop around - you’ll often find them on sale like these ones are Much better than Furutech at similar price point The Absolute Harmony is the best RCA on the market. The Harmony RCA’s are very similar to the Copper Bullet and Silver bullet RCA’s, except the Harmony are much better I ONLY use the absolute Harmony on my own DIY IC’s Regards - Steve |
I like the "WBT" locking and the KLE knockoffs that Audio Envy uses: https://audioenvy.com/product/connectors/pure-copper-rca/ I picked some up last year in sale. |
All suggestions are great, Swithcraft is really good while you playing with designs. It's no slacker even compared to more expensive rca's listed above. You can pick them up from B and H photo dirt cheap. I use to buy a bag full, easy on the wallet. Vampire's are very nice too for the money if you like to tighten down you rca's. |
Neutrik Profi …. Spring loaded ground contact: retractable element with separate wedge contacts which keeps the shell in the front position when engaged thus also providing a direct and strictly coaxial electrical connection from the socket via the shell to the cable shield https://www.neutrik.com/en/neutrik/products/phono-rca-connectors/profi-cable-connectors https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/rca-phono-plugs-neutrik-vs-wbt.675201/ |
Hi , - Neutrik is the standard for RCA and XLR and affordable. - ETI Research, Xhadow, KLEI, Oyaide, AECO are the best - Bang for the buck: EIZZ, Ramm, Viborg Try to get pure copper or tellurium copper plugs instead of an alloy of brass/phosphor bronze/nickel. Pin design (hollow for example) and plating is less important IMO. The base material sets the bar. |
Easy to Source, with a reasonable price for a Pure Copper Gold Plated Signal Pin. https://www.aliexpress.com/i/32795525594.html |
