I think the Anthem binding post configuration was mandated by Canadian government rules. It doesn't help your situation, but I don't think you can blame it on Sonic Frontiers, which manufactures Anthem equipment.
Need to change Spade to Banana
I have an Anthem Amp 2, and although it is a fine amp, Anthem really screwed the pooch with the binding posts. The spade lugs on my Analysis Plus Oval 9 will not fit into the 'groove' of the binding post. I currently am using Monster banana plugs that allow a spade lug to be attached but feel as though the surface area that actually makes contact between the banana plug and the spade lug is quite minimal.
Can anyone suggest a better spade-to-banana converter?
