Speaker plug - quick573 - 03-27-2022

I need to replace the female socket on my 38-116. I can't find anything that fits. I would replace the male plug on the speaker if I could find a pair of five pin plugs that i could attach the male end to the speaker frame like the old one. any thoughts?  Thanks   Frank

Hello Frank,
maybe post a photo of the mating side because I have lots of connectors like that .

Check radiodaze, they might have something you could make work!

Hello Quick,
I have a very similar plug on my General Electric 1940 Console my wire was also bad, so I used heat shrink and spliced modern wire on it for now than when get time I am going to drill out that rivet in the middle .
Sincerely Richard

Rich, the riveted disk is in bad shape. If I can't find a good used socket I will take your advice.  Thank you, Frank
