Binding Posts

Cardas patented binding post system uses smaller amounts of metal and eliminates threads on conductive sur- faces. The design sounds better and is CE compliant for EU import restrictions. Designed to be direct soldered. Posts accept 6.3mm spades but can accommodate 9mm also.

 

Clamp can be modified to work with bananas by drilling 4mm holes where indicated. See slide #2 below.
