Heavy Duty Binding posts for Krell KSA 250

Looking to find out if any folks out there have found and installed a more robust binding post for the older Krells, like the KSA 250. Hopefully without any modifications to the amp. The stock plastic post used on that amp does not really accommodate today's larger spaded speaker cables all that well. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Change the binding posts and you will change the sound. What you are attempting to do is backwards anyway. Find a spade to fit your amp not the other way around.

The better the binding post the better the sound.

The WBT's come to mind but they are very expensive. Cardas makes them as well as a few other cable manufacturers. You will either need a tech to do it or be very handy with a soldering iron.

But there's a limit to everything. It only has to be adequate. Stay away from Chinese aluminum garbage. Audio Note makes very inexpensive gold plated 5 ways with good weight that will probably at least match your stock Krell's.

The Cardas ones are just beautiful, however the shaft size is larger than the stock ones and so the buss bar hole diameter would have to be increased a bit. Not that big a deal, but I was hoping that there might be something out there as nice as the Cardas yet require a little less work.
