Title: Metal ps2 plug (6 pin mini din?)
Post by: margo baggins on Fri, 15 August 2014, 03:25:55

anyone know where I might be able to get one of those fancy metal plugs?

Need to make a ps2 cable for my ps2avr, or at least put a nice plug on the end of my cherry cable. I've seen them about but I can't find any online to buy.

You're welcome!

Didn't realise the fairly long lead time on that particular sku though, 5-7 days.
If you need these asap perhaps these would be a better option as they're readily available.

I doubt they are of the same quality but all depends on your needs.
Scratch that, not the right one!
