? for Proac Response Owners


I have a pair of Proac Response speakers, they have the double connection posts with the solid pins to jumper between the posts. I'm curious as to what type of wire termination works best on these posts......

Thanks in advance.....Ed

The best termination you can use between the binding posts is a pair of jumpers made from the same speaker cable. If you are using bananas, then obviously, this is not an option. Bottomline, use biwire cables.
Immediately REMOVE those terrible pins that ProAc provides as jumpers and buy yourself a set of real terminated jumper cables, either spades or bananas, whichever your actual speaker cables aren't. The pins are really crappy and I kept losing mine whenever I switched cables--they just fell out onto the carpet and were lost for hours. I use some Transparent jumpers w/spades, but have also tried some Analysis Plus jumpers w/bananas. Both immensely easier to use and better connections all round. Of course, as others have said, actually biwiring your speakers is another option.
I have ProAcs and am running them with biwired Analysis Plus Oval 9 with WBT banana termination. However, I also own the previously mentioned Analysis Plus Silver Oval jumpers with spades in case I ever need to have the speakers jumped.
