Bananas over ARC VT-100

The light bulb just came on!

The holes are there, just a little to small. the teminal blocks are solid brass. I think I can just drill them out a tiny bit more and the new banana's will fit

I'll let you know what happens if I attempt this

You're scarin' me!

May the force (not to mention a steady hand)... be with you.

Glen; I guess you like those cables-- what are they? Cheers. Craig

Garfish,

Just a pair of Nordost SPM's

Hey Glen,
Oddly enough I have used SPM banana ended cables with my vt100m2 - they worked fine.

Do your banana ends have this opening along the cylinder side of the banana that allows the 'cylinder' of the banana to compress & make a thinner cylinder? If this is the case, the intention of the nordost banana plug is to have a spring loaded cylinder that 'spring expands' against the enclosing walls of the speaker/amp terminal.

You do have to use 'moderate' pressure when inserting the speaker cable end into the amp to get this cylinder to compress.
