WTB NAD early pre amp to power amp metal links. 3020/7020 3140 3150 3155 Monitor series . These would be the curved U shaped ones. I know I can use a patch cord or Audioquest ones (I have those) but those do not always sound right . On some gear it helps on other pieces it thins out the sound. let me know Thanks. KG

Have you tried making your own? Get some bare 8 gauge copper, bend it around a suitable object(a round 3/8" rachet handle works), trim it & you're done.

A guy I bought a NAD from made his own out of heavy gauge "silver" wire to gold plated ends. Sounds pretty darn good!

Try these, I use them on my Pass Labs Aleph 30 and Adcom GFP-750. High quality

EDIT: Nevermind wrong solution you need preout/main in shorting caps. These will be too small. Poke around the Dedicated Audio site, you might find something that will work

Yes. They are shorting caps for balanced connections that need to be shorted in order to use the single ended connections.
Gold plated, solid brass. Typical Cardas build quality. I bought spares just in case too.

These would certainly work, and probably sound better than the stock shorting bars. Not cheap
