Binding Post Jumpers - New Product!!!


Here is a new product from KLE Innovations...
https://kleinnovations.com/kle-innovations-klei-products/klei-qseries/klei-qseries-speaker-binding-p...

I have not tried them, but I have tried many of their other speaker cables and I have tried the Banana plugs used on them.

The Banana plugs allow you to plug the speaker cables directly into the back of them

All of their products are outstanding and work extremely well - I have no reason to believe these will not live up to their stellar reputation

Enjoy - Steve

Different strokes for different folks!
The  KLEI bananas work very well for me in my system. So well in fact that I recently received another eight-pack of them.
No, they don't look like a piece of jewelry, however, I really like what I hear when I use them, in my particular scenario better than a bare wire connection.

@grannyring I'll be interested in reading your thoughts after the break-in process ;-)!
Whitestix, I agree with you regarding the Duelund and Western Electric wire. Grannyring originally made the suggestion to me and I'm happy.
Duelund tinned - copper in cotton oil impregnated wire. 16 gauge going to my top speaker terminals and 12 gauge going to my lower speaker terminals. Terminated with the KLE Bananas.
Also a pair of speaker cables made with the Heavy Duty Western Electric 10 gauge wire.
The deep cryogenic treatment on the Beldon wire williewonka suggests is also going to influence the sound. I like my set up that I described above.
I've had the opportunity to compare non-cryoed to cryoed pair of speaker cables, a few power cables, and several AC outlets in 2001-2002. I preferred the sound of the cryoed because I believe I heard more details and slightly deeper bass, and wider and deeper soundstage. The downside is a much, much longer time for the break-in to take place. Sometimes the break-in might take so long that the listener might lose patience and write the product off as subpar. I also remember that I didn't care for the sound of anything gold that was cryoed. With that said, long ago I decided to purchase a good cable cooker.
grannyring, I was able to put my Duelund speaker cables terminated with the KLE Bananas on my cable cooker so I did not experience unpleasant listening.
Bill, as long as its something I can put (attach) to my cable cooker I'd be happy to do it for you. All I'd ask is for you to pick up the shipping cost both ways.
Correct me if I'm wrong with my thinking here.
If I have the KLE Bananas and use the same good Duelund wire that I used when making my speaker cables, let's say 5 inches of wire per two Bananas X 4, then I've made my own KLE Jumpers using Duelund wire?
@williewonka Thanks for the suggestion. I'm actually not making any jumpers however in a different KLE Banana thread I beleave you recommended I do something simmular qirh the two wuns of Duelund 16 gauge wire on the upper speaker treminals and 12 gauge on the lower termanils. I will have to try it.
I'm using Montana EPX Speakers in my second system.
I've experimented with them for 10 years or longer and every time I do I reach the same conclusion; they sound best to me with two runs of speaker cables (4 in total), one pair to the lower speaker terminal and a second pair to the upper speaker terminals. In this particular scenario, I like the Duelund 12 gauge going to the lower and the 16 gauge to the upper. Sounds better than a jumper to me.
@williewonka alright I tried the above 2/2/18 suggestion and to my amazement, the music is more pronounced as if a veil was removed! 
Who would of thunk it!
I need to spend more time listening to music in that system to really be able to describe the changes in sound.
Thanks for the suggestion ;-)
