Hello chaps.

I'm looking to build my external crossovers but would need x12 pairs of decent quality binding posts... Does anyone have a stash I could dip in to?

Cheers
Joe

12 pairs :eek:

Can I make a suggestion? Get some of this stuff & cut to length (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-x-500mm-LENGTHS-M6-6mm-METRIC-BRASS-THREADED-ROD-1-METRE-TOTAL-/220880086825?pt=UK_DIY_Material_Nails_Fixing_MJ&hash=item336d7aa729), as well as nuts, washers etc...

If you must go crazy then get a bottle of this stuff (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tableau-Silver-Plating-Solution-150ml-Adds-Pure-Silver-/260844898735?pt=UK_HomeGarden_CLV_Cleaning_CA&hash=item3cbb9149af) ;) It'll plate them in pure silver.

Jobs a good one.. I use those same M6 threaded rods or M6 brass bolts as speaker terminals. Works a treat ;)

Hmmm... I like your thinking Mark. To be honest I bet they would be as good many binding posts out there.

I'll give that some thought but it would be a lot easier for me to just get some ready made ones.

If you look at the cost of something like Mitchell terminals then I think you'll see where I'm coming from :eyebrows: By the way if you type "gold plating solution" into ebay search you can find that to...

Brass rod which is about 65% copper, then silver plated & then gold plated to preven corrosion will still work out a hell of a lot cheaper than 12 pairs of Mitchells :cool:
