In Reply to: Just replace them on one of my monoblocks today... posted by McGruder on February 19, 2007 at 17:58:21:
in that at some point i'd like to sell my speaks that just received the Cablepods...but asking folks to 'deal' with the busted spade connectors kinda sucks.So, i've been racking my brain trying to find a free fix...maybe a chunk of wine cork? It would slide in place of the busted plastic and provide tension to spades.
Anyhoo, my speaks are so large that the thought of lugging these back in hurts more than paying $100 to get a new set installed.
oh well, just glad to know others share my pain. I told my story to the guy who sold the Cablepods to me, and his reply wasn't nice. Something like, "I've sold hundreds of sets of these are you are the only person to break them." For me, it seems like a tiny design flaw... then again, most speaker cables aren't a solid 12 gauge wire like the anti-cables.
but, i am a slave to the Cablepods sound and great value for the $.
Wait, did you replace the busted screw down collar or the entire set?
