4mm sockets for Briks

[jimmymcfarrell]

Does anyone know where I can source 4mm sockets of the same type Linn fitted to later Isobariks. Planning on separating the connections to individual drivers and need to add some more input sockets and I’ve seen this done where the additional sockets are indistinguishable from the original ones.

Try your local linn dealer, maybe available as a spare part?

Were the originals not made by RS components or at least very similar? Nearest I can find these days are by Deltron but best check the dimensions, the length especially. They have indentations in the outer surround but otherwise they look the same.

From the spares kit the Linn part numbers are:

MCP 108/1
MCP 103/P2

Have you tried calling Wilmslow Audio?

You can tell that these were a bespoke design for Linn by how much force is required to fit/remove a fresh Deltron banana.

Linn tight that is, Linn tight!

Hirschmann makes fine 4mm sockets.

You will need quite a long body on the socket as you are mounting into a substantial cabinet rather than a metal chassis.

Richard Lines is decommisioning some bariks and is selling off the drivers, you could ask if he is happy to sell the spare connectors?

Thanks for the replies:

Yes that’s why I’m hoping to source something similar to the originals.
They're more substantial than the Deltron ones linked above. I used them when I did this to my Sara’s & had to rebate the inside of the cabinet slightly to make them work.

Will look up details to PM

which looks nothing like anything I’ve found available. Would you be willing to sell those?

You could source those from dead crossovers from the likes of Nexus, Index, Index II, Keilidh, Tukan etc.

That is a damn good idea
