Spade to banana adapters

Don, If you are able to change out the bananas on your speaker cables you could put on WBT 0645 stackable bananas. They are $24 each at partsexpress.

the only thing i've seen like what you describe is here.

Sorry, This response got tagged to the wrong (old) thread.

Bdgregory, Thanks. That is exactly what I was looking for.

I know adapters are not the best solution and there may be some degradation but it is a cheap experiment since I already have two identical pairs of very good speaker cables. Bless Parts Express for providing the option of economical U.S. Postal Service shipment for small items.

Now I can experiment to see if the addition of a second set of speaker cables offsets any negative from the adapters. As a plus, I get to lose the jumpers at the speaker end. Kind of a trade off. Adapters at the amp end replace jumpers at the speaker end.

I am still open to other options if anyone knows about other adapters.

Contact Matt Rotunda at www.pitchperfectaudio.com and he can get you some low mass banana to spade adaptors that will do just what you want.

While you don't want to do it...the "bare wire hole" is actually for the banana plugs. Thank the European Union bureaucrats for that.
