Installing Spade Connectors for stock Rel Speakon Cables

I recently acquired dual Rel T9Xs. I'm trying to turn the bare wire end of the Speakon cables into spade. Since the Red and Yellow go together on the positive speaker post, I was wondering if anything has tried to merge both cables into a single spade. If so, which spade connector has worked well. Thanks.

@sean1216 that depends if you are using a stereo amp, dual monos, or differential. Which are you using?

There should be no issue going with spades and combining if that is the connection setup REL recommends. I use bananas on custom built Speakons. That is, as long as the gain isn’t too high, in which case, just eliminate either the red or yellow wire to each side.
