    Are you talking about the brass jumpers that connect upper and lower + -?
    If so, you can polk cs ph. # @ top of the page. Or, you can just replace them with some wire?
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    If your talking Binding posts, try here.

    If your talking about the jumper between upper and lower binding posts, as obieone said, just use some speaker wire to jumper them. Nothing magical about the jumpers. As a matter of fact many will recommend replacing them with quality speaker wire anyway.

    But if you really want jumpers, perhaps these or these (assuming the spade will fit)

    Do you use thes on your speakers? Do they make a differance to your ears? If so for as little as $10.00 a speaker I might try them.

    Thanks potee

    That's a backwards move.

    Yes. Copper is a better conductor than brass.

    I don't. Can't say I ever really did any comparisons--too busy and too many recommend it as a cheap tweak and for cLose to no additional cost? No Brainer.

    Jojo, if you really want the jumpers instead of speaker wires, the Cardas jumpers I linked to are solid Copper.
