[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 8462244, member: 628688"] The reason you don't see the spade terminal blocks a lot on amplifiers is because of current limitations, plus I suspect it's cheaper to use round set screw terminals that take the bare wire directly. You can get around the wire crushing issue by using ferrules. I've not used them but some high end car audio shops use them on every installation, such as NVS Audio in Linden, NJ. [/QUOTE]
