RE: Replacement for screw type speaker terminals?

I agree about using aluminum. Delrin is too soft, and most all plastics, especially soft types like delrin or teflon will 'cold flow' under pressure, which will cause the posts to loosen over time. When we use plastics like this at work, we need to use Belleville spring washers to keep tension. Over time, they too will loosen, so not a long term solution.
