"1/4" jacks aren't designed to handle any amount of power. Speakon 4 pole
would be the only connector I would install."

They also short out the amplifier when being plugged/un-plugged (or come part way out of the cabinet or amplifier), and when the fiber insulator in the tips (Switchcraft) cracks.
