Happy Thanksgiving Schipo! I am very thankful for this community and it's support of my audio affliction. Chadnliz, I live in Franklin OH. Any chance you live near my neck of the woods?

Spade to banana adapters
Don, If you are able to change out the bananas on your speaker cables you could put on WBT 0645 stackable bananas. They are $24 each at partsexpress. 
are any of your friends audiophiles?
