Hello All, Its been a while since I posted and I hope someone can help
Just recently ordered a rather nice looking pair of BeoVox CX50 bookshelf speakers they arrive in the new year. Going to use them with my Beocord 8000 and Technics M215. I intended to (for now to use them just with my Rotel-RA 400 stereo Amplifier and this unit just takes and clips in the end of speaker wire without the need for connector. However, at the rear of these two speakers it use a 2-pin din socket, thats as much as I know. Does anyone know what kind it is (Male or female 2 pin din) as there seems to be two types of adapter I can buy.
Would I need the female version to plug into the back of the speakers? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-X-2-PIN-SPEAKER-DIN-IN-LINE-SOCKETS-FEMALE-CONNECTORS-EASY-FIT-SCREW-TERMINALS/191906676533?_trksid=p2047675.c100011.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D333008%26algo%3DRIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D38661%26meid%3D1e9a10c406a84bbb9e1626febe17bc8e%26pid%3D100011%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D162295505229
Or the male version? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-X-2-PIN-SPEAKER-DIN-PLUGS-MALE-HI-FI-CONNECTORS-EASY-FIT-SCREW-TERMINALS/201611075785?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D38661%26meid%3D4ee271553fb1472d985639e7187d259d%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D191906676533
Merry Christmas and I hope everyone gets all the B&O audio gear they want :)
And if you have a choice of connectors, choose a slim type. The connectors in the speaker sit down in a recess, and it isn't too wide.

Thanks of the tip. I bought one that looks like this which will allow me to screw in my own wires in. There really wasn't anything else in regards to a slim one.
