I have a pair of maggies 1.6`s ,I have the monster adapters and the maggie adapter as well , couldn`t tell the difference between the two , But could hear the difference between the adapters and bare wire. I have the T-14 and the new Q-10 on the maggies,I run spades on the amp side and bare wire on the speakers side. but if that won`t work for you , you can call Vampire wire they have an OFC adapter that I hear is the one you want over the monster.but still the bare wire is the better way [sonics] if you can keep them clean, you can clean them with Craig Pro Gold. your going to love this wire on the Maggies, one of the BEST WIRES you can get for the money!!!!!

Magnepan Spade Lug Adapters
I just received a fantastic set of Silver Sonic T-14 speaker cables, but they are terminated in spade lugs and my Maggie 1.6QRs have non-standard binding posts which don't accept spade lugs. Supposedly there are adapters out there, but I haven't been able to find any info on them. Do they really exist? Do they affect the sound? Should I just have the cables reterminated? Anyone have any insight? Thanks in advance. Brian
