Any one else have this complaint?

I have avalon speakers and the binding posts are on the bottom, and it is a huge pain to change them(speaker cables). I believe Vandy's are the same way. I just changed speaker cables again and it take about an hour to tip them over change the cables get them back on the spikes and then close to the right spot , and toy with them getting them perfect over the next few days. With some speakers you don't have to do this, it is enough of a pain that I would not get another pair of avalons for this reason- am I the only one who thinks it is as annoying as it is? their must be a better way!!

Tim; I can see where the terminal location on your Avalons could make changing speaker cables a bitch-- and those are heavy speakers. The Vand. 5s have terminals about half way up the back panel, and I've always considered that a downside as I need at least two more feet of cable per speaker, at least when using a single amp. Well, the upside is that the Avalons sound great. Right?
But you must have just has a "cable changing session"-- have a cold one and listen to some tunes. Good Luck, and Cheers. Craig
