Yes, i did remove the wiring some 25 years ago since the fabric was quite deteriorated and put modern ones but never get a clean result, i want to restore them in the near future with fabric sleeving wires and a TRS connector that i have and is period correct, the otiginal connector were banana plugs and the sound was mono.

Interesting.

I replaced the cabling for mine but they're wired in series (I intend to use them for amateur radio). I used ethernet cable, a TRS plug, and for fabric sleeving I pulled the core out of some olive green paracord.

I've been meaning to make some kind of stylized button to clamp over the Y part but never got around to that.
