Shastapete Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I was missing a few "connector ring nuts" from my g2 and G3 sets, wanted to get replacements as I was self refurbing the units I have. Found the official part #600357 at full compass for $3.50 each http://www.fullcompass.com/product/438166.html Searched for a cheaper supplier and came across "Round knurled nut for M6 sized hardware and audio jacks/adapters" on JAMECO $0.19 each, 10+ qty. part number 2183226 http://www.jameco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10001_10001_2183226_-1 Ordered a bunch, figured it'd be a cheap mistake if it didn't work out. Took about a week to get to me, but I'm happy to report they fit perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Duff Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Thanks for the info, these would also fit most 3.5 jacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundtrane Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 full compass is the WRONG place to look for something like this. obviously you realised. heh. if you use a very small dab of Loctite (temporary - blue) you will never lose one.

Shastapete Posted November 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 General price for the "official part" is in the $2.50-$3.50 range. Full compass is one of the first google results for that part, so my first impression of sticker shock made me quickly look for alternatives.

studiomprd Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 neither Full Compass nor Sennheiser base their business models on huge sales of parts like this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
