Analogue Solutions, Analogue Systems and Deopfer all use
CLIFF jacks - they are the manufacturer. Moog also uses them,
but in 1/4 inch, not 3.5mm.
The problems that probably most of use have seen with these
jacks was due to a design issue that Cliff has since corrected.
Most of the D and A. Sys modules shipped in the ast year have
already had these new jacks installed.
Until recently, these jacks weren't availible in te US piece parts,
but CLIFF USA (in the bay area) has got them.
