Does anyone have a good source for the round terminals that slide onto the cartridge pins? I looked around and it looks like the going rate is about $5 for four! (plus shipping)
It used to be that new cartridges came with them but not anymore (for a lot of them anyway). I thought I'd find something like 100 for $10. Maybe the return of the vinyl drove prices crazy?
The actual ones designed for cartridges are tough to find. The pins for crimp DB-9 connectors work well but are a bit long.
I'm going to order some Molex female crimp pins. Cut maybe half of the crimp end off then solder. I don't need a hole for the wire.
