Sony Speaker pins
 
Hi

I have a Sony DAV-S500 home theatre system.
Naturally, the speaker wires that came with it are rubbish, so I've started
to replace them with better items.
The speakers are connected to the base unit via a plastic plug with two
separate receptacles. Using a pin in
the body of the plastic connector, it's possible to remove each wire from
the plug.
I'm left with a speaker wire with a crimped-on connector. For now, I've
soldered a new wire onto this
but I'm sure these crimped connectors are available somewhere, possible in a
gold-plated version.
If anyone knows where these are available, I'd be very grateful if you could
let me know.

Regards

John Galvin, Ireland.

No disrespect intended, but the DAV-S500 isn't exactly a high-end model; the
16 gauge wires it came with ought to be fine. I'd be surprised if there were
any aftermarket upgrades.

Gold connectors are not going to make any difference never mind gold

plated.
