Connecting Speaker Cables to Dynaco ST-70


My spade speaker cable connectors are large and without a lot of effort (which I do) the positive (non-ground) connector will touch both the 4 and 8 ohm taps on the Dynaco.  Will it hurt anything sound or equipment wise if the speaker connector touches both amp taps?
Thanks in advance.

I always installed Vampire or WBT five-ways on Dynaco tube amps. Simple to remove the existing terminal strips and use the same openings, without butchering/modifying the chassis at all. Insulate the unused x-former leads. MUCH better connection than original and easily reversed, if desired.
