Replacement RCA connectors for NAD 3020

[Dave Oakes]

Evening all,

Would any of you know where to source replacent RCA connectors for a NAD 3020? I'm working on one at the moment, and they're all horribly corroded.

If there are any suggestions for replacements, or how to de-rust them, I'm all ears.

For context, this amp had been sat in someone's garage for ~20years before it came into my possession...

TIA!

another 3020 is an option i have a few but where they are is another question, i would be concerned if the rest of the amp is working ok

The amp itself is fine. Needs a recap, but works all the same.

Any and all RCA patch cord resources can be had from Amazon. (No affiliation)

Thanks, but my question is not about patch cords. It's about connectors.

The style of connector for the 3020 and board layout/mounting. Pretty much locks in going with the same parts.
Without doing some serious mods to the board. Even if possible. I would not attempt it.

A donor unit for the required parts.

Get them out and plop'm in a glas of fresh and sparkly Cola for a day. It works great for corrosion on steel any way, I'm not sure about other materials. But worth a try right?

Should probably familiarize yourself with the terminology but wires with male ends are called male RCA interconnects or patchords. The so called RCA connectors are called RCA female jacks so I was trying to feel you out so to speak.
