WBT Banana Connectors
I recently acquired some Canare 4s11G to make speaker cables. 10ft runs, for JBL L100s and a Marantz 2270. Has anyone used, or a fan of the the WBT Bananas? I am considering the copper version, silver a bit out of budget. Also would welcome hearing experiences on working with them making cables. Thank you!

+1 @dabel My bad. Thank you! Many things are better when tight!! |
Pin to Spade or Pin to Banana. Leave the backend of that Marantz alone (original) unless you’re eager, willing, daring and have the technical know-how for such a mod. Reconfigure your rack to where the 2270 could / can be set close to the floor in order of cable support, or support cables with various technics. You’ll want to relieve sag! Trust me, I have a Marantz 2270 .... |

I have always preferred bananas over spades. AECO make an interesting spade that may be a good low mass option. I remember the years ago loving the heft of an expandable WBT banana. Thought it enhanced the audio performance. Come to realize, it was just connector jewelry. I have transitioned to solid core conductors and with proper cable routing, provides less strain at the banana. Fun hobby...right?
