Using big spades on a barrier block.

I just bought a pair of Cardas Golden Cross speaker cables for my Kilpschorns and want to know if there is an adapter that I can buy to connect the cables to the barrier block on the speaker end?

The Cardas spade is pretty big and i'm hoping there's a way to connect the cables without cutting off the spades and just using the bare wire to connect to the barrier block.

The barrier block has a #6 screw from what I can gather.

Any advice would be great.

Thanks!

Hi Kenscollick,
Thanks for your response.
Yeah I was thinking I could file them down to fit into the barrier block.
I will try that this weekend and hopefully it will be the solution.
I guess you're right in regards to the barrier block being named that due to the restriction it has on what size spade you can use.
Best regards

Thanks for your input guys.

Looks like I'll be having some fun, or not with this over the weekend and hopefully I can figure it out.

Best,
