I'd not say the difference would be either measurable or audible. If
an ultra low resistance connector was desirable, you wouldn't use a
phono. ;-)
Good point. Think I'll just go with the 49p plugs I mentioned for now, they
look like they might take the thickish "low loss satelite coax" I just
bought 100m of pretty well.
Maplin do sell some nice gold-plated phono sockets and plugs with PTFE
insulation. No chance of melting the insulation as you are soldering
the wire. (I've had centre pins move out of line soldering thick co-ax
with low-temperature plastic insulation on the plugs)
