DIY Banana plugs/spades - Blu-ray Forum

Beta Man · 02-23-2009, 06:37 PM

I've made some connectors to ensure I have no loss of signal or corrosion from the point where the speaker wires are terminated, to the point where the speaker binding posts are...... I'd give you the complete schematics if I could, but I don't want Monster Brand (please don't sue me for typing your name here

) to steal the idea, and pass it off as proprietary information. I've even added "Bafflers" to eliminate unwanted interference.... either way, I need to solder the bare wires to my plugs, and then insulate it still, but here they are..... I bet my entire soundfield is going to open up with these babies....

Now if that was SILVER foil, instead of alumininimunimiom (

) you might be onto something!

I think if I have the coat-hanger oriented to the right, it may improve the sound too

That is patented "baffling" technology, and I can't go into further detail on that

Weird. I was seeing more of a Yoda shape myself (look for the ears, and you'll see it).
