MMurg 48 Posted May 30, 2018 Hi All, Newbie to the forums. Long time Klipsch fan (purchased first pair in 1984) but didn't know about the forums. Found out about them in the various Klipsch Facebook groups. To get to the point... I recently bought some used Palladium speakers (P-37Fs and P-17Bs). The center hole in the binding post only seems sized to accommodate the hex wrench that comes with the speakers. The banana plugs I have do not fit in them. Are the Palladiums not designed for banana plugs or are there smaller ones that will work with them. For now, I'm using some Monster Flex Pin connectors. Those work well enough but I'd prefer to use banana plugs. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don Richard 542 Posted June 2, 2018 I think that's a removable cap that covers the banana socket. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wstrickland1 985 Posted June 2, 2018 Be very careful if you use bare wire or spades not to tighten any more than necessary. It will shear right off in the blink of an eye. It was a pain in the arse to fix on the P39s I had. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MMurg 48 Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) wstrickland1 - Thanks for the warning. I have not had any issues so far with the Monster Flex Pin connectors and I only hand tighten them. Don - There are no caps on the Palladium binding posts. They have a hex hole in the center for tightening with a hex wrench. This hex hole does not accommodate the banana plugs that I have. See the attached picture. Edited June 4, 2018 by MMurg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
