Recommendations for spade lugs for 14 ga conductor?

I see several spade lugs, such as Furutech and AQ, but they seem to designed to accommodate much large diameter conductor than the 14 ga. Canare 4S11 conductor that I am using for my subwoofer.  Any recommendations would be appreciated, including crimped-style lugs.  Thanks.

I am very happy with the AQ BFA connectors recommended above on my speaker cables... they provide a very secure fit.  For my REL sub, I got the SL-1 Universal Spade Lugs from LAT International for $12/quad.  They are copper and crimp style.   Cheap and cheerful!

Correct me if I am wrong, but the 4S11 is not just 14 gauge, each wire is 14 gauge X 4.

Assume you will be cross connecting two wires as mitch points out above and connecting the two in one spade.

Your first statement is correct.  I only need three of the four conductors to hook up my powered REL sub.  One conductor, one spade connector.
