So along with some IC's and a coax I recently got some jumpers from Frank at Signal Cable.
The jumpers have banana plugs on the ends, which I requested.
Stoopid me forgot that since the MIT speaker cables have banana plugs I'll need some sort of splitter or Y adapter to plug in the jumpers to the posts with the incoming cable.
Googled it and saw nary a thing that looked like that.
Do they make 'em?
Thanks.

Here ya go: http://www.mitcables.com/iconn-connectors.html
The banana's come off as they are screwed on. You just take them off and get a set of iccon spades and your good to go.

LOL.
A couple of regular Laurel and Hardy's, you two are.
Thanks, Dan.
Wish I'd had Frank just put spades on the jumpers. What a bone headed move asking for bananas.

I just e-mailed Frank at Signal and he replied with this item, a banana-to-spade adapter -
