Is this an Input or an Output?
In professional audio, a Female chassis socket is almost always used as an Input (e.g., the port you plug a microphone into).
Do I need a specific hole size for this?
Yes. This uses the standard D-Series cutout, which requires a 24mm (approx. 15/16 inch) diameter hole for the body to pass through.
Does the locking button feel flimsy?
No. Our sockets feature a high-tension steel spring mechanism that provides a satisfying "click" and remains secure even under heavy cable weight.
