I am trying to locate a Power Lead for my CP200 and so far without success, it appears that Dolby no longer stock it and I have so far unable to find the correct connectors to make a lead up.

The Power Lead I require is the one connected from the Power Supply PS1B to the Processor unit.

If anyone has one available or could provide details of the connector plugs, I would be most grateful for any assistance.

You might try Peter Hall who often posts here, or Dion Hansen ex of Dolby UK.

This has been covered in another thread.

The Connector is AMP's "MR" series (Minature Rectangle). The power connector uses the 9-pin version. These should be available from your AMP brand supplier (Digikey is one source). The wire was 18awg, If I recall correctly. Make sure you make it pin-to-pin.

mouser.com is where you can get them.

AMP 9ckt Matrix Plug
Part number 571-16405210 (mouser partnumber)
640521-0 (mfg part number)

AMP 18ga Socket (you'll need 9 per plug)
Part Number 571-6413001 (mouser partnumber)
641300-1 (mfg part number)

The sockets crimp onto the wire, so you'll need a small crimper. I also recomnend a tiny drop of solder to ensure they stay put. Once the sockets are in the plug your not gonna get them out without an extraction tool (which is retardedly overpriced).

The cost for the parts to make 1 cable is probably under $3USD.

If for some reason your in a jam and can't get them let me know and I"ll build one for you. I've got enough spare parts in stock to build 2 or 3 of them if needed.
