No binding post a good idea?

Hi.
I want to ask your opinion about my "No binding post" idea. I think the binding post degrades the quality of signal and sound very much because the post is made of one of larger metal in the signal chain. If a speaker cable from an amp is directly connected to speaker's internal wire, the signal will be purer. I have a design (pat. pend.) for a binding post without the metal connection bar. Do you think the sound will be better? What should I consider a relation to the sound with NBP?

My initial test was very positive. I'd like know your opinion before I invest money on this project. I appreciate your help in advance!

If you use screwable wire crimps from Home Depot, you will have a luxury of disconnecting your speakers if necessary.
Crimped connections are superior to soldering and you can use actually any but each time you'll have to cut wire, strip isolation and re-crimp again.
Other than that I do not see why warranty should void. Just do a clean job and make sure you'll put wires back together to the binding posts when bad comes to worst.
