Default OT(ish) - delivery from eBay of small electronic components

Yes, like 3.5mm jacks, 5 pin DINs are only fit for limited use. Gold doesn't really solve that though. If you use something suitable like phonos or 1/4" jacks there's no real upside to gold unless the environment is corrosive.


Unless the box is hermetically sealed then a corrosive atmosphere that
affects the plugs is likely to kill the internal electronic components.
