flukeyluke Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Doing the final touches to my theatre atm and its time to terminate all the cables I have run into some good wall plates. What do you guys use? Is there better plates to use? Who do you recommend in Melbourne? Thanks, Luke
mtv Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 It might help if you mention what type of terminations you require.
flukeyluke Posted May 3, 2007 Author Posted May 3, 2007 Ah, good point Speaker. HDMI Whatever you need for Foxtel
Spearmint Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Kordz have a few that maybe suitable. For Foxtel just use the same as the rest of your bakelite. You’ll need two F-type and one RJ64 or similar mech’s if you want IQ.
Guest JohnA Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 i just used blank wall plate, cut out the holes required and ran the cable straight through. Don't want too may terminations. Then fill the hole with a gromet

Is there better plates to use? Who do you recommend in Melbourne? Thanks, Luke Jaycar and Altronics have modular wall plates that are designed to take a variety of connectors -- including gold-plated speaker binding posts, banana plugs, RCA, coax TV antenna, hdmi etc. You just snap in the combinations you need. Quite reasonably priced, too. They're specifically intended for home theatre aplications. Rod
OakenShield1 Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 I've made quiet a few purchases off Selby Accoustics and had no dramas with them as yet. Highly reccomend. Linky

Then fill the hole with a gromet Same here, except I wanted a slimmer look to the wallplate so made my own out of flat steel and painted them the same colour as the wall, produces a nice slim look and doesn't introduce a break in the line. Cheers, Curious
XR6T4ME Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 Have you seen the Btech BT7070 products? You can get them in anodised silver or white and various sizes. They are slim and come with end caps as well - look real good. This site has one of them only but do a search, I think Avico Electronics distribute the BTech range. http://www.audiovisualdevices.com.au/viewp...tid=BT7070-100W Cheers
xr06t Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 i have decided to use pdl wall plates. http://www.pdl.com.au/products-nav.aspx?id=1000 there is a link. it is best to give them a ring and they can put you in contact with your local distributer!
Thudd1503560234 Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Here's a bling option if you want it: Chrome wall plates. They're in the UK so they're in that odd square size but it's yet one more option.

jdh500 Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 I used Clipsal 2000 series blank wall plates for most of my installation, ie. some with holes to let the cable through, others where I wanted to neaten it up, I've used a a combination of Jaycar/Altronics components and attached them to the Clipsal 2000 plates. What this mean't was that commercial plates that would of cost $30 to $60 each end up costing $5 to $20 each by doing it myself in my spare time.
