I was thinking that instead of hacking up my original terminal cups to add some binding posts and an upgraded IC cable post, that I would find an aftermarket cup if there is one that fits.

I could remove mine but curious if someone already knows the dimensions or if there is a direct fit replacement.

    There unfortunately is not an exact drop in that I know of -

    I do know you do not have to hack anything up, alot of modern parts will drop right in!

    Once you upgrade you will never put the originals back in anyway so I wouldn't worry about it.

    Yeah.....I'm sure you are correct. Something about keeping the speaker original just weighs in on me. I'm mainly after changing the IC cable post to a banana or spade post. Granted the speaker has been modded it's no longer original but was hoping there was a drop-in replacement cup.

    I will get in there this week and change out the pin terminal.

    I felt the same way for the longest time, but I just recently said eff it. I never liked the binding post idea, so I'm changing the pin/blade stuff out for some Neutrik Speakon connections.
