    Washers won't do Dan. Collared bushes have to be used, otherwise the sides of the metal posts can come into contact with the aluminium label.

    If you get stuck, you can send both terminal plates complete with crossovers attached to me and I can sort them. You'd have to make a note of wiring connections before disconnecting drivers though. Photos are best.

    I've done this job on many speakers, including Ditton 15's. I'd need to order parts.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    The "red bits" are the bushes. Note the proud collar on one. That goes through the front and insulates the post from the metal label. You may need to make the holes slightly larger to accomodate those.

    If you're in any doubt about doing the job without causing damage. Let me do it.

    Looks like you've put the thick bush on the front. Use the thinner one with the protruding spigot/collar on the front with the collar going through the label and use the thick bush at the rear, then you should be OK. As I said, you may need to enlarge the holes.
