^There is a gallery of about 40 different ones to choose from. I've dealt with partexpress.com and was very impressed. Hope that helps. Those ones with the push style terminals at the top of this page are very cheap... and highly not recommonded since they can't accept very thick wire at all.. and break very easily.

I highly recommend this one.. since you only need to drill two holes for the wire to come through into the box.. rather then router out a 10cm hole for an actual terminal cup.

The only part I don't like about that is if I decide to take the box out for whatever reason its easier to just unclip the wires

JRace - I'll more than likely pick that type up, I didn't know about the whole clip ones only working with 16 gauge wire etc. Thanks [img]smile.gif[/img]

Really? Wow....

Commonly found hanging out on the input side of pretty much every industrial speaker enclosure on the planet. Also available in 8 conductor versions (NL8MPR).

Thing I like about them, you pull the connector, and no bare wires to short together, can't even touch the conductors. And, they take up to 12ga. wire no problemo.
