I’m so upset that I’ve lost the locking pieces on my pricey Silver Bullets. I can’t find the manufacturer, D Lin, with a Google search. Is there any way to replace these pieces? I think my cables are worthless without them.

Silver Audio ( former D Lin) is not in operation anymore as far as I understand.
You could buy a new set of plugs with locking barrels. In best case, the barrels on the new plugs have the same threads as the old ones. Worst case, you would have to replace the old plugs with the new ones. It is possible that the old ones are WBTs.
If you want to go "threadless", have a look at the AECO RCA connectors over at PartsConnection.com.
As you can already see how the cables are connected, as previous advice buy replacements from any one of numerous manufacturers of which WBT and Furutech are two of the more common excellent quality manufacturers and rebuild them yourself, they may even improve in quality
I took a photo of the cables. It looks like they match the attachment in Whistleraudio’s message. The writing on the connector says “made by WBT Germany”. I’ve written an email with photos to WBT-USA in hopes I can get replacements. I hope so!!
