Hi,

Looking to replace my bi-wired speaker cable terminations. My local

hi-fi
dealer is selling banana plugs at £1.50 which are the ones which don't

need
soldering.

Does anyone know where I purchase these online cheaper?

Are they as easy to fit as the dealer says?

Also, what are the best type of terminations ... spade or banana?


Neutrik Speakons actually ! The only connector ever actually specifically
designed as a *speaker* connector. Will accomadate up to 4mm^2 csa wire.

Like the pros use.


I've just completed testing of a prototype amplifier with Speakons and 4mm
bananas in parallel. Those who have listened to it "prefer" the
bananas!!!!!! I have no explanation.
