Amphenol more than likely does QC... So I would expect the majority of
their connectors to be better than the possibly non QC tested
connectors. I doubt most resellers QC the connectors. I am sure some
do, but I would love to know which ones do.

In my experience, coax connectors, barrel connectors, etc. are always

step before taking the amp apart.
If this is happening, I'd suspect 1) the connectors have gotten wet or
2) the are JUNK connectors. If they aren't labeled "Amphenol," they're
JUNK.
