RankStranger Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Item: One pair decent RCA plugs with a 9mm cable entry Price Range: $20ish Item Condition: New or Used Extra Info: need to reterminate one end of some cables and I thought someone might have a decent single pair of RCA plugs sitting around unneeded. Must accept a 9mm cable. Don’t have to be any silly unobtainium stuff or even in new condition but something of reasonable quality like ETI or similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray Hodges Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 May be a bit out of your price range, I have a pair of used Furutech CF 102R RRP $220 for $115 delivered or 2 pair of unused Furutech FT 111R RRP $170 for $120 delivered recently purchased from AVGallery. Both sets are screw in so can be used on different cables. Both supplied with original packaging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look great but way over budget 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I don’t come up with anything better here, I’ll go for a pair of those or the fake WBTs kicking around but no one has stock of the Neotech white ones either and if I only have two red ones, I’ll lose track of my left and right and probably get run over next time I have to cross the road ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vik74au Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I got a few of these older ETI bullet plugs new unused in my store for years due to a unfinished project, I will come back with more details https://www.vhaudio.com/bullet-plugs.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to use them a lot in the hifi shop. If you’re just making up a cable once and then you never touch them again, they’re mostly fine. But if you take them on and off a bit or change them between cables, the metal is kind of brittle and the threads tend to strip and the clamping mechanism snaps off. They’re usable if they’re all you’ve got but not my preferred option 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good for the price and will accommodate your cable diameter https://store.cliff.com.au/rca-plugs/271-rean-gold-rca.html Thanks, Bill. I have some of them and they’re great but they’re only 7mm ID. Are there multiple versions for bigger cables? I need 9mm Edited October 29, 2020 by RankStranger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
