Why not use the appropriate spade lug female, faston, crimped on the wire as it is designed for? Mike McNany |

The combo takes care of that problem and adds a lot of flexibility. How should I go about attaching these to speaker wires? |

Next question: The combo jacks have a "vertical PCB mount". I assume that these aren't intended to be used on speakers, but we would really like to use them in a fixed installation role on the output panels because we get many clients (including one choir teacher ) that use 1/4" connectors on their monitors, bring their own cables, and don't always have accesses to the equipment we own. The combo takes care of that problem and adds a lot of flexibility. How should I go about attaching these to speaker wires? |

Well, it seems like I've been going about this in the wrong way. Does anyone have a good diagram of how these fastons work? Next question: The combo jacks have a "vertical PCB mount".
