C26RCA
This kit is designed to replace the original nickel plated steel RCA jacks used in the McIntosh C26 preamplifier with a set of gold plated Switchcraft connectors. The original connectors tend to get loose with age, and in models that utilized an aluminum mounting plate, the interface between the connectors and the plate was susceptible to galvanic corrosion over time. This kit eliminates these issues while maintaining the original star ground scheme.
The kit includes a replacement RCA mounting plate, 21 RCA connectors, all necessary mounting hardware, and a printed installation guide with pictures.
Please note that installing this kit is an extensive process that will involve drilling out the original isolated rivets, removing the cables attached to all RCA jacks, mounting the new jack plate in place, and re-soldering all cables. If you do not have prior experience doing work of this caliber on similar electronics, please have a qualified service professional install this kit in your unit.
