Bulding Cabinets, Binding Posts, and Speaker Wire ???

I am building a pair of boxes for a 15in fullrange driver. I have 2 pairs of audioquest rocket 88. 1 pair is 10 feet. The second pair is 8ft. I was going to use the 8ft pair as the cables for inside the box. These would run from the driver to binding posts. The cables are connected with spade connectors. Obviously connectors could be removed, but have never attempt anything like that and do not want to ruin the cables. Are there any quality binding post that can accept spade from the inside of the box? If not, any good recommendations for binding posts that dont need soldered. Also, if anyone thinks this should not be done for any reason(to long of cable run), please chime in.

If I were to undertake building my speakers, I would brush up on soldering. It isn't hard, but takes a little time to get it right.
  
Once you get it, you have a skill that can lead you to other projects in audio.
Heck, you'll be able to repair things yourself, instead of going to a shop.
Hopefully, Ericsquires will chime in. I know he has built his own speakers.
