Default Source of 3.5mm gold plated audio connectors ?

Hi,

I'm on the lookout for gold plated mono and stereo audio connectors in the
popular 3.5mm diam. fitting. I've noted that the tin plated variety are
noisy when used for microphone input purposes.
They're common enough on the small head- & earphones, microphones etc. that
come with audio gear. What I'm after is the bare connector so that I can
make up my own leads. RS Components do some at around £5+ each which seems
high when complete earphones (with gold plated plug) can be bought for £9.
(And XLR types would weigh as much as my MiniDisc recorder!)

Any ideas before I go down the cannibalise route?

Thanks

No worries, I buy lots from them, you have to check prices though, they
aren't always cheapest, but their service is superb.
