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.

Its a good idea. I had Ted Denney build me some to replace internal wiring and it was a huge improvement. Assuming of course you like the rocket 88, as otherwise why use it. Make note of directionality, cut em up, solder em in, enjoy. Anything else, look at it this way. You're using expensive wire trying to squeeze out every last bit of sonic detail you can. Right? But then you're gonna sacrifice a whole lot of sonic detail by stuffing in wire that's too long, and adding poor connections instead of soldering. How's that make any sense?

You know the wires good. So use em. If you're concerned about resale then sell them. Sell them now. Or use them. Whatever you do, don't waffle.
