Are BFA Connectors sold anywhere in the US

I'd like to re-terminate some speaker cables to fit a Linn amplifier, but I am unable to find a source for the required BFA connectors. These would also be required for some Arcam amps, I understand. Has anyone purchased any of these elusive snipes in the US?

Look up "Arcam" in the manfacturer directory and this should take you to the US distributor, ASL Group. Give them a call. The BFA's they sold me a few years back were of high quality and they accepted 9/10 ga. bare wire w/ a screw used for securing the wire. Soldering was not necessary. Check w/ them. Bill

Thanks for the help.

The folks at Arcam were real nice and I have 5 pairs on the way for very little money.

Rufer, I think what you describe is the BFA/CE connectors, and they would have worked as well, as it turns out there's a dealer 2 miles from me which carries them. All the pictures I could find on the web showed only the bare bananas, the /CE connectors have the outer insulation that I was looding for.
