Maplin HH24B "Maplin DIN 2 Pin Plug" claims to be a "DIN standard plug
with solder connections" Unfortunately one of the two photos shows a DIN
3-pin signal plug, though the other shows a speaker plug.


I tried searching the Maplin site and the only examples I could find were
screw terminal. And my experience was that both the Maplin and CPC websites
can be a real PITA to find things on if you don't already know some magic
hidden description for what you want! Plus in both cases the descriptions
tend not to always tell you if it is screw or solder connection. So you end
up peering at small photos they tell you may not actually be of what you'd
get! :-/

I find the CPC printed catalogue easier to search, yet that is also a pest
as some things appear scatterred into more than one section. I did
*finally* find 4mm banana sockets with solder buckets, though. At least
these aren't as 'obsolete' as din speaker plugs!
