Triticum Agricolam Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 You don't want to use a 1/4" phono jack for power. Those jacks short out everytime you plug/unplug them, so if you ever accidentally do it when the power is on you could fry something. I would suggest using a SpeakOn connector. They give you all the convienence of the phono jack, but are specifically made for what you want to do and they don't short out. They also can carry a lot more current. https://www.parts-express.com/neutrik-nl2fx-speakon-connector-2-pole-cable-mount--092-198 https://www.parts-express.com/neutrik-nl4mpr-speakon-connector-4-pole-round-chassis-mount--092-054 "Nothing prevents people from knowing the truth more than the belief they already know it.""Making bass is easy, making music is the hard part."Builds: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
