Cardas Rhodium/Silver Jumper - how does it work?

I went to the Cardas site and they had these pictures:



and



So... you just bend them to fit?  Also, any idea what the spade size is (1/4" or 5/16")?

Thanks!

Yes... you just bend them to fit.   I really prefer the cable jumper (with bananas rather than spades) for ease of use.  

The jumpers are a 1/4" spade and bending them to go over larger post can be a challange.

My favorite way of jumping binding post is to use the cable jumpers with bananas rather than spades.    It is much more expensive than the simple jumpers but if you can solder you can build your own for less money.   It only takes about 2ft of wire & whatever number of spades/bananas you need for the job.

I have a bunch of these jumpers, and I couldn't get them to fit over my posts.  So, if you want them, let me know.  I'm probably going to use wires I got when I bought my VMPS speakers (although I need one more set).  However, I may just use the crappy metal piece that came with my speakers, as these are for my surrounds anyway.
