Just bought some Neotech gold plated UP-OCC connectors at half price, $34.95 for both IEC and wall plug: http://www.partsconnexion.com/ac_neotech.html

Never used Neotech before, but good metallurgy and should be great for DIY.

    My U.S credit card would charge me currency exchange service fee. Does that happen to you?

    I have used their solid core wire and an IEC power cord connector and was satisfied with both. Neotech makes good stuff (from my experience). It is great DIY stuff!

    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Haven't noticed - I'll have to go back and look.

    Realized, I misstated the price above. the IEC and wall plug were $34.95 each, not for both - still a bargain.

    I've only used paypal, and I've had no issues there. Maybe credit card through paypal?

    I don't like how their website and stock isn't live, but some of their sales and bargain basement deals are hard to beat.

    FYI, there is also a "service fee" for using paypal at Parts Connextion. Not sure how much it is though as I have always paid by credit card.
