Product Description
The Evidence Audio ESP-RA-L Soldered Plug is a compact, high-quality 5 mm mono connector designed for serious pedalboard builders and studio users who demand maximum signal integrity in the smallest possible footprint. Built from conductive brass with direct nickel plating, it delivers a clear, reliable connection while keeping your wiring neat, low-profile and easy to manage on even the most crowded boards.
Measuring just 23 mm x 15 mm x 8 mm, the ESP-RA-L is one of the smallest soldered plugs available, making it ideal for modern loop switchers, tightly spaced pedals and compact rigs where every millimetre counts. Its robust construction and precise tolerances help you create rock-solid patch leads that sound as good as they look, with none of the compromises associated with cheaper connectors.
Evidence Audio have specified brass for all contact points to maximise conductivity and preserve the full character of your signal. Combined with direct nickel plating, this ensures a clean, consistent interface between your cable and pedal, minimising resistance and helping to maintain clarity, punch and detail across your entire chain.
The ESP-RA-L is designed for use with 5 mm cable, making it a perfect choice for high-quality patch leads built from popular low-capacitance cable types. Whether you are wiring a compact grab-and-go board or a complex switching system, these plugs give you the flexibility to keep everything tidy, accessible and sonically transparent.
Ultra-Compact, Pedalboard-Friendly Design
At only 23 mm x 15 mm x 8 mm, the ESP-RA-L takes up minimal space around your pedal jacks, allowing you to fit more pedals into a smaller area and keep your layout clean. This is particularly useful with modern switchers and pedals where jacks are positioned very close together.
Brass Contacts with Direct Nickel Plating
Using brass for the contact points provides higher conductivity than the pot metal or steel often found in budget connectors. Direct nickel plating over the brass helps maintain a stable, low-resistance connection, supporting better overall sound quality from your patch cables.
Optimised for 5 mm Cable
The ESP-RA-L is tailored for use with 5 mm outer diameter cable, making it ideal for building robust, professional-grade patch leads with popular 5 mm cable types. This ensures a snug mechanical fit and reliable strain relief when soldered correctly.
Ideal for Dense Switching Systems
The extremely small footprint of the ESP-RA-L allows angled connectors to be used in places where only straight plugs would previously fit. This can free up valuable space behind switchers and at the edges of your board, giving you more flexibility when planning and wiring complex rigs.
Features
- Tiny, Low-Profile Form Factor - With dimensions of just 23 mm x 15 mm x 8 mm, the ESP-RA-L helps you maximise pedalboard real estate, making it easier to fit more pedals and keep your wiring neat, even on densely packed setups.
- High-Conductivity Brass Contacts - Brass contact points offer superior conductivity compared to common pot metal or steel connectors, helping to preserve clarity, dynamics and detail across your signal chain.
- Direct Nickel Plating - Direct nickel plating over the brass provides a durable, stable contact surface that resists corrosion and maintains a consistent electrical connection for long-term reliability.
- Designed for 5 mm Cable - Optimised for use with 5 mm cable, the ESP-RA-L lets you build strong, secure soldered patch leads that integrate seamlessly with high-quality cable types used in professional pedalboard and studio applications.
