Simple solution for those G-9000 speaker connectors

[Robisme]

Well, pretty simple. Works for the G-8000 and other units as well.

I worked on a G-9000 for an AKer and both A and B terminals were shot.

The simple solution? Marantz terminals. Many Marantz units use this type. Only thing is, you have to drill two mounting holes for each set.

I mounted them in what looks like an upside down orientation because the speaker wires run down into the track.

Nice find! I would definitely be able to use those.

I just ordered a pair from a 2226 on Ebay. I can't wait to get them installed. Thanks for the tip! Mine are really bad.

Glad it helped someone. I see a lot of threads about these Sansui speaker terminals going bad, so I figured I would post what worked for me..

Very neat Rob, looks original, but better than what was there before.

Thanks Rob. I'm keeping an eye out for those for my BA-2000.

Very nice Rob . Excellent idea. I was wondering how I would repair an old friends G9000 speaker posts that were broken to death from his children.
Thanks.

That looks great. I will look for some. Thanks

how did you remove the original terminals out? After removing the bottom of the case out, I am having a hard time of pushing the clips in to remove the terminal assembly.

Can someone please re-post the pictures? Thanks.

Photobucket was down again, that's why it wasn't showing. It's up right now.

Thanks Rob. Now the question is where do I find these terminal! Not sure if Partexpress has anything close to this.

Hi Rob
I see this at Partexpress but not sure if it can be used to replace my broken G9000 or not. Thanks

There is a link on that PartsExpress page to the drawing for the speaker terminals - time for you to get measuring.

Those look pretty cheap and you will have to do some measuring as previously mentioned. I think the ones I used are better quality. That said, the Marantz terminals will set you back $20 a piece.
If you search Marantz speaker terminals on eBay you will see a bunch.

Thanks but I will check out Marantz per Rob's suggestion.
