HT and Heater Supply connector recommendations

[ruffrecords]

I am looking for recommendations for a connector to carry heater and HT voltages and currents from a power supply to a mixer. Basic requirements are:

1. Voltage up to 300V
2. Current up to 8 amps
3. 6 to 8 pins
4. Circular
5. Crimp termination
6. Not ridiculously expensive

I have been using 6 pin XLRs for lower current applications but soldering them is a royal PITA. For high current applications I have been using Neutirk 8 way speakons but they are not recommended or this type of application.


Cheers

Ian

If You'd not ask the circular - I'd advice the Harting connector.
Phoenix connector also does do nice things, but these are a bit expensive...

If a connector meets all the other criteria I will consider a non-circular connector (circular is just easier for hand made prototypes)

Which Harting model did you have in mind?

This sort of thing easily handles your requirements, apart from it not being round. Maybe you just have to bite the bullet ....
