Old Technics HiFi system;where can I obtain the flat connection lead?

AnthonyUK

I have bought a second hand Technics separates HiFi system compromising a SH-C650 processor, SL-CH555 compact disc player, RS-550 Stereo Cassette Deck, and SA-CH655 stereo amplifier BUT no flat block block connection lead suitable for it! Where can I obtain the requisite flat block connection lead to connect all the components together so I can get it working?:beer:

Google search reveals a lot of technical manuals for these units - maybe one of them would have the pin connections to allow you to knock up something suitable? Trouble with non-standard connectors, unfortunately. Failing that, car boot sale for another stack and make sure it's got the cable.

That reminds me - I have an old Technics separates system in the loft.

Searching for 'Technics Cable' on eBay throws up some possible (used) candidates.

Managed to get a cheap all in one hifi system from cashconvertors so I just got rid;Technics has been absorbed into Panasonic and they no longer trade anymore, Panasonic cannot assist me and forums have reported the same problems.
