Spinning Posts

So when I tightened the little palstic nut on the binding posts on my FXia4's the whole post started to spin...not just the nut but the post itself, i.e., the wire started to move clockwise around the post as the hole it was inserted into rotated...Pretty sure this isn't a good thing...do I have to return these things or is there another fix...bought them from tweeter so a return shouldn't be a problem, but if i don't have to.....

    Take the screws out the binding post plate and pull it out. You might be able to secure them from the back.

    yep, once you open them up the little music notes in there dance out and get into your brain, they whisper things.......what they say is different for everyone but it always involves spending copius amounts of dough on audio.

    Welcome to our little world.

    Oh that was good! No wonder I had to get more speakers so quickly - I opened the 10Bs to check the X-overs.
