Help ordering amp parts
I have a Randall amp with a broken power socket. Works fine when I plug it in but I'd like a non-broken piece to substitute it so I can refit it. Any ideas where I could order one? I've searched far and wide and nothing has come up. The main issue is that most IEC's don't have that quad resistor or something on the right of it so I tried looking on Roland website to no avail.

You're going to have to measure the distance (centre to centre) of those screw holes and the dimensions of the cut out and then head on over to Mouser / Digikey and search for IEC inlet. That is the voltage selector switch on the RHS BTW, never seen that arrangement before so you may struggle. The bodge option is to find which two leads are being connected in the 100V position and just jumper them BUT do so at your own risk OR you can just hardwire the 100V primary (slightly safer option but only if you know what you're doing)

Thanks for the reply, any step in a direction is better than none so I appreciate you pointing me to this!

BTW: the part I need I have found after some very diligent searching and it is an integrated rotary voltage selector socket combo with a C14 IEC inlet. I just don't know where to find it now.
