Anyway, since the spades have some serious black burn marks that I cannot remove, I do want to re-terminate them.That sounds like arcing due to some very very loose connections. Thats 1 reason I prefer banana's. I personally would contact the guys at SR and have them re-terminated by them. Sure if you are not afraid of soldering and know how to you could do it yourself but remember high end cable companies tend to put some research in types of solder used if not crimped or screwed on along with the brand of connectors.
Synergistic Research IFT bi-wire
Hello,
I have a question about adapting SR Acoustic Reference IFT-Bi-wire speaker cables to a single set of binding posts.
There seem to be two ways to do that;
1. Insert two spades in a bindig post
2. Block the spade of jumper wire end-side with some tapes to avoid shorts and put the main spade in the biding post.
Do you have any idea of which will be better?
BTW, IFT-Biwire, I understand, is a typical single wire speaker cable soldered with a jumper wire at the speaker end spades that are big enough to accomodate two cables at once.
