Erik you went bananas. The spades in my system, both on pass amps and Wilson speakers, are as tight as nun’s ponytail. Never ever had spades work themselves loose. In any of the iterations of my system.
Bananas rule, spades drool. End of discussion.
I just checked my speaker connections. All using bananas, all nice and tight.
The number of times I’ve had spades get loose instead though.....
Point is, and it really is kind of a tongue in cheek thing, bananas beat spades for long term reliability in almost all setups. If you have to use a Cardas or Mundorf speaker terminal to ensure your spades stay tight it kind of proves my point.
