I like to just wire in a couple 6" pigtails with female RCA connectors. Keeps my jacks from getting bent/broken when the thing takes a knock.

Why don't you replace the actual port in the receiver? Or is that have a possibility to damage the board?

Requires finding a part that's an exact match to the one that was there. Not worth the effort for an old subwoofer like this, nobody sees it anyway, just hears it ;)

@@TheSlinq I came across your video because I was trying to find a way to replace my sub RCA connection on my receiver. I didn't know there'd be a difficulty finding that part like that. Thank you for that info, I'll probably end up doing exactly what you did then!

@@AberdolphLinklr Some will be easier than others - I would first search eBay for "panel mount RCA" and see if one that looks the same as the ones that are in your receiver. If that fails you could try a proper electronics supplier such as RS components or Digikey. If it's a standard type, you may be lucky, but if you can't find any that look exactly the same, then yeah, soldering on wires is generally the best approach - if it will only be visible from the back of your receiver it may not be a problem - it won't affect the sound quality at all, it's purely cosmetic. Hope this helps :)

@@AberdolphLinklr I buy 90% of my components on eBay - it's the best combination of cheap and easy, I go to Digikey when I need something very specific, or when I want to be sure of receiving genuine parts (eBay is generally okay but sometimes you do get inferior quality fakes). And when I'm actually trying to buy a cheaper fake version, I'll generally go to Aliexpress.
