Speaker Cable Terminations


Can anyone explain the proper way to terminate speaker cable? Please include pros and cons of termination methods including soldering vs. crimping and benefits of spade lugs vs. bananas, etc. Also where to purchase effective but inexpensive terminations.

Ernio...you sound like a college prof. asking an exam question. Please fill out the blue book entirely in neat legible blue ink only. Get on the web, buy some WBT connectors and some Monster and Kimber stuff. Get a soldering Iron, some tools some wire etc. and have fun! There are several sites offering do it yourself info on cables and terminations. Read a lot first and then take the plunge! That is how I did it. It may not be right, but it worked for me because I had FUN doing it.
