Wattgate Connector Measurements
Although the pin is 12mm length, I think the clip 6mm from the surface is a little too much, 2-3mm is more reasonable, IMO.šŸ¤” @erik_squiresĀ  I think I'm wrong about that! Seems 6mm from the surface is quite common. Ā  Ā  Ā   
Benchmark AHB2 amp - what speaker connectors are usedā€¦.
@firstonetallguy and @ditusa , thanks in fact I was still surprised when I felt that spade connector slide in. @thomastrouble , I agree that those clear plastic covers is difficult to see the slot on the bottom of the binding posts. I should h...

My Luxman Integrated has AC Inlet Envy
Ground goes on top. šŸ˜€ Unlike AC Receptacles, IEC 60320 inlets can install in any orientation, some Marantz and Denon even put it sideways.šŸ˜€  
Wattgate Connector Measurements
What Iā€™m feeling is the pin grip mechanism keep it from accepting the full width of an IEC pin. From what I can see from a clear casing Wattage, its spring clips are deeper form the surface compare to others in the market. That could be a probl...

I have a chance I can do everything through the outlet hole. If possible, try turn the original C18 inlet 180Ā° before you replace it, perhaps that can help the aftermarket plug stay in better since the two pins are on upper side. Hopefully you... 
Wattgate Connector Measurements
Did you compare the result of Wattgate, Connex and the stock Luxman plug into the Luxman C18 socket? Can the Wattgate plug in all the way? Is it possible to post this thread on DIYAudio site? images/drawings are more easy to upload without requir...

Great! @erik_squiresĀ šŸ‘ Please let us know your progress. BTW, since you going to open the chassis of your Luxman, Would you do us a big favor to check the power transformer primary winding if there multi tap or not, so we can be sure the possibil... 
Q on connecting Benchmark DAC3HGC to AHB2
You will clearly see the slot (16mmx2mm) for spade connection on a black version of the same binding post.  
Q on connecting Benchmark DAC3HGC to AHB2
@audphile1Ā  He'd figured out. https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/benchmark-ahb2-amp-what-speaker-connectors-are-used

you can turn the clear plastic nut counterclockwise to loosen it and insert the spade connector from the bottom of the binding post. Ā  You also can use some spade to banana adapter to make connection easier. Ā  Btw, Benchmark recommen...

You can use the Kenwood KR-5600 as a platform to test almost everything you have. First thing to do is make sure the Kenwood receiver still in working condition. Then you can connect the cassette deck to its TAPE A or B IN/OUT to test if the cass...

I bought a cheap replacement inlet but itā€™s not yet in the Luxman. I just bought it to test fit my cables and it seems to do a lot better than whatā€™s in the Luxman both electrically and mechanically. Seems like replace the inlet in your Luxman ...

It seems many who reply are missing the part about SHORT CONTACT DISTANCE. The inlet on your L-507UX is a C18 (2 prongs), the pin height should be 12mm. A C14 inlet is 3 prongs, the two pins height are 12mm and the ground pin is 15mm. Have you...

I am looking to set up a whole home audio system, but my primary goal is to play my records that have been collecting dust. Your listed items are enough to set up amplification for two systems. However, I didnā€™t see any loudspeakers in your lis...
