I have a set of PSB Alpha Minis somewhere in my room, and from what I remember, they won't accept bananas or spades, only bare wire or pin termination. Just a guess, but your Marantz probably is able to use any of the previously mentioned methods of termination.
Speaker Termination for dummies
OK...I know there are other threads out there about speaker connectors but I need this stuff spoon fed to me. How should I hook my speakers up. I have a Marantz 7200 Receiver and psb Alpha speakers so I can't pay $500 for wire! I have heard of "banana plugs" but what are "spade connectors" and how do they work. Also, what gauge wire should I be using to run 25' to the rear channels? Thanks in advance.
