When the Amiga computer was produced the engineers decided to use a unique D-Sub connector variation with only 23 pins for the video cables. This made sense at the time as it was just a slight variation of a well proven and popular connector design. Now, 30+ years later it is a different story as these connectors have not been manufactured for decades and are next to impossible to find.

With no good solution on the market Soigeneris teamed up with fellow Amiga enthusiasts from RetronicDesign to have this connector remanufactured. We are very pleased to announce that we are now able to fill orders for brand new DB23 Female connectors for the Amiga. Whether you want to make a new video cable or your own video adapter we have the new connector you need.

With the connectors now available what was missing was new matching plastic hoods. While a DB23 hood can be mangled enough to work it looks ugly and does not fit all Amiga well. We approached the manufacturer of our DB23 connectors with our idea for a matching hood. The requirements were quality, good fitment, and thumbscrews where were easy to use while not being bulky and causing problems due to the tight confines behind an Amiga.

We are very pleased to offer these stylish matte black DB23 hoods. They fit the connectors very well and the thumbscrews are indeed easy to use, not like those teeny tiny screws DB connector hoods normally ship with them.

NOTE: This listing is for one connector and hood set. You can also buy the hoods and connectors separately. Please see the links here on Tindie.
