Plug and Socket for Phono3

Unread post by Dr Bunsen Honeydew »

I don't often ask for help but this driving me bonkers. I am searching for a polarised + - earth three pin line plug and socket, as with a BBPSU the XLRs aren't really up to it. I have tried 3 in the last week and none are suitable, should be over 5 amp to cope with the surge on plug together, that is what damages the XLR pins, under normal use they are fine.

Anyone know any - Nick ?

No good it must be polarised + - earth and cannot be reversed - which = bang.
