Post by: Elliot on October 01, 2007, 03:41:11 PM

Can anyone give me a link to get speaker lugs (i.e. the things that attach cable to a speaker's + and - poles)

I'm pretty sure you can get them at halfords, they're called spade connectors. Maplin do em as well http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=34145&criteria=spade%20connector&doy=1m10

Hope thats what you're on about :)

Call me paranoid but I always solder mine. Don't really trust spade connectors to stay on with the vibration. Used to check mine after I got my old AOR 100, and they were halfway off after a couple of weeks so I soldered em on.
