Correct way to attach speaker wires... Wait, what!!!
Okay this is going to sound ridiculous but I've always wondered if I'm connecting the wires in the proper way to the binding posts. I just picked up a Red Dragon S500 power amp and I figured I finally should ask the question. It has the screw down type of posts. Here is a link to the pic on their website. The wires I have are Mapleshade Clearview Golden Helix which terminate in a stiff single 3/4" wire. Any help for a dumb question would be greatly appreciated!

food vinegar or any vinegar WILL work - use a white vinegar to avoid getting thyme or tarragon your wires* - the lower acidity vinegars will simply take longer to alter Cu-oxide back to Cu do they not teach chemistry in high school these days?? if you want find a photo lab with old chemicals and use the acetic acid they have - it can be diluted if need be or... simply abrade the wire ends just BE SURE to observe the correct WIRE DIRECTIONALITY as you move the sand paper !! * an exception would be if you play only the Provence Harmonic Orchestra |
