No binding post a good idea?


Hi.
I want to ask your opinion about my "No binding post" idea. I think the binding post degrades the quality of signal and sound very much because the post is made of one of larger metal in the signal chain. If a speaker cable from an amp is directly connected to speaker's internal wire, the signal will be purer. I have a design (pat. pend.) for a binding post without the metal connection bar. Do you think the sound will be better? What should I consider a relation to the sound with NBP?

My initial test was very positive. I'd like know your opinion before I invest money on this project. I appreciate your help in advance!

Think BRF's comment above is something to consider. I am actually about to do this using speaker wire that is unterminated at one end. It avoids the expense of one set of speaker wire terminations, avoids the binding posts, and allows one to upgrade the amps internal hook up wire, while by-passing entirely the connections. In my case, the amps are out of warrenty, and it is an easily reversable modification to the amp. This takes very little skill or knowledge and is the best way to go as BRF indicated. Don't know that you are going to have much of a market for what you are proposing to do.
