I made it to 'Member'!
Please excuse this intrusion: I'm normally just a PFM Audio forum poster, and it scares the hell out of me what you boys get up on this forum! (And because I rarely look here, I've missed the boat on Neil's board group buy, not that I've got any idea what they do how or to make them, but I've read enough elsewhere to know that they'd give my ageing 32.5s a boost!)
Anyway, my rather pathetic enquiry is as follows:
Some months ago there was discussion here about the gold-plated connectors that are used on the Naim (32.5/72) input boards, which fit to the gold-plated pins on the mother board (and we're really reaching the limits of my technical jargon here!).
What I want to do, quite simply, is to make some shorting connectors, to convert each of my two 32.5's BNC inputs to line level (I know there's a Naim straight-through board, but don't want the expense of these, which were £20 a pair, the last I knew, which adds up to at least £80!).
Farnells was mentioned as a source of these connectors but the thread ended in some confusion (for me at least), and there was uncertainty about which were the correct ones to get. This was compounded by somebody pointing out that there was another variation of these connectors, to be used when making a direct cable solder connection, i.e., not onto a PCB as Naim has them (and making a direct cable solder connection is what I want to do).
Now, does anybody know for sure what are the correct connectors I need to get, or, better still, does anyone have any of them kicking around that they could sell me (I need 8 in total)?
