No binding post a good idea?

World of audio is full of markets...binding posts, interconnects,connectors,anti-binding posts, anti-interconnects,etc...everbody jockeying for their piece if the sonic meat pie

My Quicksilver silver mono's use strips to screw the wire/spades to. The Vandy's use the same type of connector. They do work better and are very easy to use. I love the Cardas Clamping system on my Ayre. It's just one screw for both wires and it gives a solid connection. Hard wired would be the way to go if you could pull it off. Vandy 7's with his new amp would have been a way to have the manufacturer do it. Bryston also has their own speakers as does Mac and a few more. If you have a way to cold clamp the wires, it would be better than solder. The only problem is that most folks have or can only get their favorite cables with connectors already attached. If you had speaker wire that matched your internal wire and did it that way, it would work. The problem is that it looses it's efficiency if the amp end doesn't use the same connector I would think.

Actually my method is best,even the best solder is only 4% silver 1% copper ,the rest tin and lead. I use a High purity WBT 
gold over Copper connectors , with crimp slide on terminals 
and use the a Furutech yellow High purity Copper 24 k gold plated 
this is the purest quality connection, I want to mention the vast majority of electronics,as well as loudspeakers come with cheap gold plated brass, which is 3-4 lessin conductivity as well as Thst much more in added resistance. Thst is why I replaced connections to all copper throughout my system, as well as 
high quality fuses ,which the steel fuses are a a Huge bottleneck of resistance ,just check out  the metals resistance index online.
if you truly want to do it right . 

What are the measurements that say your's is best?  That's quite a bold statement.  

I know a few designers who have actually sat down and listened to many different binding posts, terminals etc..  They have hard wired as their reference.  A couple have gone with the new teflon barrier strips with gold plated screws. Some use the WBT's and some use Cardas.  

Those are the three different binding methods of those I know who have actually gone through this process.  

Bottom line is that this is only for the DIY crowd and that's cool and a blast for those who like to tinker.  It's all part of a fun hobby.

I made my own binding posts using single crystal copper, and the sound is much better comparing to regular copper gold plated. Next thing I will do is to make spade plugs.
