Hi Everyone,

I have an issue finding a power cable that will connect to red connector with the 2 open holes on back of my modified minimoog attached to the picture I'm including in this email. Does anyone have any idea what kind of connector that is?

Thanks,

Greg

I don't think you are going to find a mating plug for that. Very likely that the safety agency of the country (IE UL in the US) has deemed it unacceptable for high voltage AC power. I can see safety/fire hazards with that type of interconnect.

Just have it replaced with an IEC socket, that is a quick job for any tech.

I have no idea but it doesn't look very safe whatever cable it was using. Might I suggest removing those antiquated modular connectors to the left and doing something like this instead?

I'm no blacksmith (obviously)but Home Depot or equivalent for aluminum strip and a drill/Dremmel are good enough
