Hi,

I am trying to get some connectors for Ri70. I am currently using Dayton audio stackable banana's on the amplifier end and thinking of using spades on the speaker side. What do you guys think about the following spades from monster?

http://www.crutchfield.com/cgi-bin/S-cRGghMoRFfA/ProdView.asp?a=0&s=0&cc=01&g=22113&id=essential_info&i=119QLGASH

My concern is that whether they will fit properly on the RTi70's posts and also will they accept the Monster XP HP 14 Gauge speaker cable?.

Thanks

    I have monster bi-wire 14 awg useing monster lock banana's and they fit and work great!! forget the spades, the banana's are far easier to unhook, and the wire fits pefectly fine.. I have a dealer i found that will sell these for $12.50 a pack with 5 bucks shipping for as many packs as you want (within reason i assume) of course a volume order will save you more, like 2 or more packs, versus the price crutchfield and cc want at $19.99 a pack + shipping, e-mail me and i will send you the sellers info,



    EDIT: i will e-mail the guy, if he has these available or the spades i need a few more packs anyways, we can split the shipping, you send me the money and i'll send you what you ordered.. let me know,

    I recieved three pairs from faster this weekend. These seem to be the best and easiest to apply connectors that I have ever used. Mosnter has come up with quite a good design. I will post pics once I apply them on my other main and surrounds.

    Thanks faster for obtaining a good deal on these for me, and its always a pleasure dealing with a helpful forum member like you.
