Speaker binding posts with plastic covers

These 5 way binding posts unscrew (the type you and others are thinking of),

• Accepts up to 8 AWG wire, banana plugs, forks, spades, and speaker pins

they are ’mini’ size, smaller outer diameter to fit where/when nearby obstacles prevent the larger outer diameter of standard ones.

not sure, your spades might be too large for these mini sized ones.

IF your speaker cables are expensive, the connectors on the Krell could be changed

There are Spade to Banana Adapters, here's one, must be others

Those speaker posts look pretty much identical to the posts that came on the Parasound A21+ which I owned.  If the same, just unscrew the cap as you would most binding posts.  The only semi-difficult thing was figuring out how the spade connected, as it needs to be at a certain angle.  Once figured out, it holds the spade exceptionally well.

I doubt Krell would adopt a different, less convenient binding post, at least for US sales.

people are telling you their experiences with their connectors that do unscrew, like mine .....

the type you posted DOES NOT unscrew. read the full description

another spade to banana adapter, 

I sent an email to Krell yesterday. Their response: "They just unscrew." So I'll have to just unscrew them. I'll try some channel lock pliers. Do you think a blast of Deoxit might help loosen it?
