RE: Source of A/V connectors and a STP termination question

["Steve Morgan" <steve@xxxxxxx>]

Graham,

232-487 can take 6mm cable and comes in a combined red/black pair.
Alternatively, you could consider soldering spade terminals onto the wires
and user them on standard 4mm terminal posts. Car Hi-Fi specialists should
have some gold plated ones that will take hefty cable.

Any better?

Cheers,
Steve

Thanks for that, but I have pretty big cable (cable talk 3.1) and prefer
using a bare wire connection rather than banana plugs, hence the 'screw
down' ones sold by maplin. Trouble is I can't seem to find those sold
separately.
