Best RCA female output connector.....a CD player ?

Pilar: For Eichmann to make a female RCA, they would have to make the males and females in such a manner that they would be "keyed" to fit in only one way. Otherwise, it would be hard to make a ground connection due to the limited points of contact on the connectors.

Personally, i think that the Eichmann's are a lot of "hooey" from a technical perspective. While i've not used them personally, they do appear to be relatively brittle and not nearly as robust in construction as i'd like to see. Sean

Sean, I'm surprised that you would summarily dismiss a product you have never used. The Bullet Plugs are the real deal, I've replaced more "robust" (and expensive) plugs and in each case noticed an improvement. For me the robust quality of the bigger RCA's is the problem, do I want 1 oz. of metal terminating my cable or 1/10 oz.?

As for being fragile, I've soldered and resoldered them many times with no ill effects. Heat shrink on the cable ends then another piece over the cable and barrel provides strain relief.

P.S. -I'm just another "internet trained" hobbyist with no formal background in this stuff so take my opinion for what it's worth.

I have Eichmanns and there is something that is something that I cannot describe or put words to that is not completely right about them.Although I am satisfied with their performance.

I still think they are exoensive for the amount of meterial that is used ,but then again there are RCA's like WBT that are so over priced it is a crime!
