Reasonable RCA Connectors?

Hi all, I'm going to build two sets of interconnect cables and need 8 RCA connectors. Would prefer to stay under $25/connector... any suggestions? Using Duelund 16ga tinned copper as my wire...

Thanks.

Yesterday I soldered KLEI Pure Harmony RCA connectors to my DIY Duelund DCA16GA cable. When I connected these RCA to my Chord Qutest DAC, I damaged Qutest female RCA connector central pin contact. After that, I opened Qutest and see contact plate was moved from its place. I returned contact plate to it’s place. Now my Qutest works again! But I can’t use KLEI RCA connectors with it. On other hand I can use cable with KLEI RCA connectors between my phonostage and amplifier. Both use Vampire female RCA connectors.
