An audio jack designed to be wedged between a printed circuit board and a fixed portion of an electronic device in which it is mounted, thereby obviating the need to solder contacts thereof to the printed circuit board. The audio jack includes a housing (1) and a plurality of contacts received in the housing. The housing defines a longitudinal plug-insertion hole (12) therethrough for receiving a mating plug. Each contact (3, 4, 5, 6) includes a base (30, 40, 50, 60) and a tail portion (32, 41, 51, 61). Each tail portion extends downwardly and inwardly from a bottom of the base. A contact tab (321, 411, 511, 611) is formed on a distal end of each tail portion for resiliently abutting against circuit traces of a printed circuit board.
