what is your favorite connector? here are some of my favorite connectors: 1/4" TRS: real good plugfeel. TRS is electrically unsound, but these feel great  BNC bayonet connectors - simple yet satisfyingly functional   Military circular connectors. great if you might blow up. real expensive tho  lightning! works every way you might try and plug it in. real nice. solid plugfeel what are your favorite connectors

i like fan headers because they're better than molex even if they're usually in impossible locations. same with the 4/6/8 pin atx, although nowdays those are usually just on the side of gpus

dms 59 was kind of cool at the time because all the little pins looked like pixels and lots of pins == lots of pixels for super serious high res dual displays
