  • Need help with an old WEM amp

    I'm looking for a source of power sockets used in an old WEM valve amp. I don't know the model of the amp. It has the number 50 on the front panel and uses 2xEL34. The socket is cracked and I need a new one. Such sockets were used in old British amps (for example in HiWatt). Does anyone know where such sockets can be purchased?

    Looks like an old Bulgin Museum of Plugs and Sockets: Bulgin and Belling Lee connectors

    You might find a modern Bulgin that fits.
    Experience is something you get, just after you really needed it.

      I see that Farnell has Bulgin sockets but not exactly the type I need. I'll keep searching.

      EDIT: the model of the amp is WEM Dominator 50.
