[QUOTE="Deiimos, post: 8897448, member: 682903"] If the amp is new / has a warranty, I would send it back for a replacement. Finding suitable RCA connectors that fit perfectly and can be soldered to the board properly can be difficult; opening the amp to solder in a new connector can also be very difficult and all this will void the warranty. If it is not under warranty, you will have to open it up and see why those shield rings are coming out and either attempt to fix it internally (modify them a bit to work again if possible, solder them from coming loose, or other methods), or see what sort of replacement you can cobble in there. You can technically even solder RCA cables directly to the board in place of the broken connector, I’ve seen this done to amps with broken RCA connectors (small female pigtail RCA cables soldered in), but kind of a last resort to get it working again. I've replaced / repaired a few RCA connectors in amps over the years, but it can be a pain sometimes. [/QUOTE]
