Symetrix 528 shorting straps
Did get some 528 but all shorting straps are missing (the double U shape things used for routing at the back of the unit), I'm currently using safety pins to diagnose and test but would like to find a more clean and safe solution. Tried to search in electronic online shops but no go, any hint?

See the jumpers at the bottom of this page:

I am guessing the Symetrix uses barrier strips with the same spacing as the Cinch 140 series (3/8"), but you'll have to measure your unit to verify.

Alternatively, just build your own with a pair of spade lugs and a short jumper wire.

Yes 3/8" spacing. I thought about spade lugs, last resort.
Looks like Cinch 140J1 is a winner, thanks a lot Brian!

More than a few times I've had to build jumpers "in the field" for boxes like dbx compressors, and spade lugs were the immediate solution vs. ordering/waiting for "proper" jumpers.

Got some 140J1 from mouser and they greatly did the job! Thanks again Brian! Now I'm facing some squealing on mid and hi eqs but that's another story
