Luomorgo PCB Panel Mount 4 Pin 1/4" 6.35mm Female Socket Mono Headphone Jack Silver Thread 20pcs

wish i found these a long time ago.. great value for money. i wish they had the slotted lugs so you could run a wire inside it, but not going to complain about that so much. using for guitar pedals. works great, feels solid, best way to go that i'm aware of!

Got all. And they all work great. Shorting pins for tip and ring open when jack installed. No play. Recommend.

worked well

Replacing the plug-in receptacles on an older amplifier, these connectors appeared to have done the trick. But there was some additional work that needed to be done. And I had to go back in and adjust the contacts on these receptacles in order to ensure good connections. I recommend these electrical connectors. They are inexpensive and easy to adapt to your circuit board.

I bought these to use in pedals. I intend to use them soldered into circuit boards.I just received them this afternoon, opened the bag of twenty and examined one. They are plastic with metal contacts that both lift off paired switch contacts which would be good for extension speakers and such where a signal would feed to one load and switch that load off when a cord was plugged in to supply a different load.I won't be using the contacts that send signal when a cord isn't inserted. At least not for pedals.My issue is that the pins I've checked on a couple of the jacks are a little too big to insert into my breadboard or the prototyping board I am currently using to mock up fuzz circuits. Both of those will snuggly accept a piece of 20 AWG copper wire. The pins under the jacks appear to be as wide as a piece of 20 AWG wire, but they're just a little too big.I suppose I can lightly hit them with a file, but I wasn't expecting to have to modify them. I can use a small drill bit to expand 4 holes on the fiberglass boards, but I was hoping to be able to plug two onto the breadboard for input and output jacks to test my attempted mods. I currently have two jacks with wires soldered to the pin and shield lugs, but they flop around precariously. So, I suppose I'll be filing at least a couple unless I find that some have smaller pins, or I find that filing is easier than drilling boards. If that's the case, I'll be filing all of them. Or, if I happen to get boards that have slightly bigger holes. I have no idea how long they'll be good. If I find that they wear out quickly, I'll add an addendum.

I used one of these to add a speaker cabinet output on my little Orange portable practice amp. I wired it so that when the jack is not in use, the internal speaker is connected. When the jack is in use, the internal speaker is disconnected and the signal passes through to the external speaker cabinet.The jack feels very sturdy and secure. I will use the rest for boutique pedal builds and to replace all the jacks in my Marshall 100W amp.

I have used hundreds input/output jacks of this type for many years. They are plastic, true, but for most of the applications are use them for they work just fine. I’ve made prototype circuits with them, production goods, and I’ve repaired guitar amps with them. I don’t understand the criticism from other reviews because I’ve made circuit boards to use these jacks and I’ve never had a problem. If these were used for a replacement on an existing board, then if it’s too large I would say measure first so you get the right part.

Not a high quality item but they work fine. Good for what they cost so I certainly can’t complain.
