Sorry for being a little off-thread, but what's a punchdown patchbay??
I've not heard this term before.

Hey Tim,
A punchdown type connection is not soldered but rather - you place the signal wire over the punchdown terminal - then with a special punchdown tool you push the wire down - the tool simultaneously strips the wire and wedges it into a metal receptacle inside the punchdown block. It also cuts off excess wire...

Thanks for the informative reply Harry - much appreciated.
I don't profess to know everything audio, but I'm a keen learner :-}

Hi Harry,
I have two soundcorp bantam 96-way with Krone. Is this what you're looking for?
