Hi folks,has anyone a spare gathering dust,or,a one that they're willing to photograph at the terminals so I can make one with the correct pin configuration,I have a brand new plug and socket but am unsure of the wiring,and the schematic is a bit vague,so either cable,pics,or even one to loan,copy,and return would be fantastic!
Thanks in advance guys (and girls!)

Which leak is it for? Just find the schematic it'll tell you.

Stereo 20,have the diagram but it doesnt make it clear what side of the plug its being viewed from on either end.It might just be me being dim,but I dont want to risk making a very costly mistake

Paul,
Nice to see you back on the radar....just to let you know, the 63s have settled in to they're new home nicely. They didn't like the cold climate and foreign accent initially but have settled down nicely....

Hi Tony!
Glad to hear they're happy in their new home!
I'm sure they are being well looked after,and fed a load of great music as well. Are you still using the mini T amp?

Hi Paul
What are you wanting to take the signal input from the old Octal Pre connector?

Basically,yes,I've the pre and power amp,just wanting to use the two together to see how they sound with each other. There's a mono output on the pre,via phono plug,but for stereo it has to use the octal plug,if I remember correctly. If it was just carrying signal,I wouldn't be as gun-shy,but I think it carrys voltages for the valves as well,so I don't want to risk anything.
Thanks :)

Well Pin 3 is your 220V HT & Pins 4&5 are 6.3V for heaters. I'm sure Anthony T has one & has worked on others!
