You're running 30 feet of wire off a reel. The terminal at the end is the least of your problems. Strip a half inch, twist the ends, stick in the hole, tighten down. With the money I just saved you buy The Complete Guide to High End Audio by Robert Harley. Don't buy anything else until you've read and studied and absorbed everything in there.
Too terminate or not
Final addition to my Harbeth p3esr and Croft Integrated amplifier combo is the speaker cable. Unfortunately I need a 30 foot long run. I’ve narrowed down my choice of cable to Mogami 3103.
I can purchase the cable in bulk from Performance Audio at $2.86/ft(need 60 ft total). I suck at terminating cables and I can purchase Vampire HDS spades separately - where can I send for professional termination with gas tight crimp and maybe treating the cable with Cryo while there? Take Five Audio sells 30ft in pair Cryo treated and terminated with Vampire spades for $450.
