hi guys,
 
I need some help resoldering my RE0 3.5mm plug since my old one had connectivity problems...
 
i cut out the old plug and stripped the wire, and there are 4 wires, 1 left , 1 right and 2 ground. however, there is only 3 solder pins on the neutrik 3.5mm i m looking to buy, how do i solder the 2 ground wires on it?
 
thanks,
 
also, anyone happen to have a spare neutrik 3.5mm that they can sell to me (in Canada) since i cant seem to  find any electronic supply shops that store these in downtown Montreal....
 
 
thanks a lot!

The Source is a pretty common store in Canada.
But $8 for their plastic 3.5mm plug seems a bit much. o_O
 
Digikey.ca has a plastic one for $1.43 (plus $8 flat rate next day Fedex shipping).
 
Mouser has the Neutrik plug but shipping is $20.
And Newark too.
 
Parts Connexion has some fancy ones (gold & pearl chrome plated, yet costs less than The Source one!), but no Neutrik.
 
 
@rudyzhou2, I've got a couple spares. PM me.

What about Studio Economik?  They have Neutrik connectors and they are in Montreal.
