JEFFYBOI Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 So my box is almost done, now I just have to decide how I want to run my speaker wire. Any pros or cons on running hardware with terminal rings. Or I thought about running the wire through a hole and silicone it up real nice. I thought the hardware is gonna looks a lot nicer but I took into consideration less connection points = less chance of having any issues.

mothra Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 wire to wire, it doesn't get any better than that if nothing changes, nothing changes You don't know what you don't know, till you don't know
hdorre Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 Resistance is a negative of using terminals.. That and possibly not getting all the wire in (as most of them are smaller). Drill a hole thats JUST BARELY big enough for the wire, and use Titebond 2 to seal.

Triticum Agricolam Posted March 7, 2014 Report Posted March 7, 2014 These are what I was use if you are going to push significant power: http://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-bpa-38g-hd-binding-post-pair-gold--091-1245 You can solder or crimp a ring terminal to the wire and attach it to the part that goes on the inside. The outside part will take up to 8 gauge wire and they tighten down real snug. Running the wire through and sealing up the hole will work fine, or course. Its just not as pretty. I'm going to disagree with hdorre and suggest you do not use Titebond II to seal around the wire. I would use silicone. The reason being that Titebond II dries pretty hard and will not stick to the wire at all. Over time it is going to come loose.
