    Old ones certainly were, took a hacksaw to get them off the backboard. There was some sort of strange allen key arrangement to hold the wires in (no soldering & they'd left an allen key bit in one) but these allen keys had part of the thread of the bolt on them so unless the thread lined up the nuts wouldn't go over them!

    Ordered some of those chinese ones, they'll be here sometime next year I think

    In the meantime I got a pair of these

    A little pricey but I needed to make sure they'd go through the back board. Fitted them today, very solid & it's nice to have the boys back in action.

    I really like the look of these mundorf posts, but they cost a fortune

    Just a quick update, the Chinese binding posts referenced by Alan (Firebottle) have just arrived and they’re actually better than the ones I paid a tenner for two for so if you don’t mind waiting a few more days they’re definitely the ones to go for.

    These look like the ones on my Krell amp. Nice! Tough as hell, no wrench needed to crank down on them. Spade only though.

    I presently use the CMC gold plated Copper binding posts like the ones above and they are very good except that the out plastic sometimes cracks and they slip so a bit of superglue is needed to fix them
