    Halo A51 and spade connectors ?

    Hi all,

    Can anyone confrim that the A51 power amp can accept spade connectors ?

    If it can, does the close proximity of the binding posts cause problems ? Anyone using spades with the Halo line ?

    Thanks

    it accepts spades, but because the line of connectors are all so close, it might be tricky. My a52 is totally different on the back, the connectors run along the back from left to right, so its quite easy.

      I'm using the supplied banana plugs. They work quite well. There isn't a lot of maneuver room in there. I have small hands and fingers and I couldn't get my fingers in there for bare wires. Spades might be a bit easier, but....

          Seeking tips from A51 owners
          by ralniv
          I need to buy some speaker wire for my A51 amplifier and want to know what y'all think about spade and banana connectors on the amp side. Is there enough space between each output to fit spade connectors? Do spades provide a better contact surface than banana plugs?

          I'm a complete newbie...

          Halo A51 Warranty?
          by gostan
          My first post to Club Halo/Parasound is to request some warranty feedback. I am considering purchasing a used (less than 1 year old) Halo A51 amplifier. It would replace an Aragon 8008 (running my front B&W 803's) and a Rotel 1075 (running my center HTM1 and rear 805's). My pre-pro is a Rotel...
