I'm working on a selector switch for a friend's mixer. Right now it has a Grayhill 44 Series 2 pole, 6 position. His complaint is that it's too "heavy" when turned. I'm sure this has to do with the military spec. explosion-proof quality of the Grayhill. The thing is that the quality of the...

I've been accumulating a variety of 1/4" phone connectors in anticipation of a community experiment. The concept is simple: to find the best 1/4" phone connector based on sound and build construction. My intention is to have this be restricted to only HD600 users (maybe HD650 also, or other...
