Review on VizGiz Connector Gold Plated Soldering Replacement by Betty Tucker

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The naysayers are right, they are too small

While these replacement plugs "appear" to be solid and well built, they are difficult to install. Obviously, they are designed to fix inexpensive headphones. . But in order to change the connector on my MB Quarts, a wire hole had to be drilled in the cap to allow the insulated wires to pass through. Attaching and soldering the leads to the connector without anchor loops to provide a mechanical interface was also a challenge. You need a steady hand, a good eye or a magnifying glass. When using them, make sure you don't put any strain on your joints. Use tape or shrink tubing to ensure the cover holds the insulation.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Something else
