Anyone got a WBT cripper.....
« on: 3 Jun 2008, 05:07 pm »
they will lend me?  I think I am gonna pony up for some bananas but don't want to pay $90 for the crimper.  Is there a cheaper type of crimper that will work?

Chris,

If you get the parts from VH Audio, you can get and return the crimper for a refund.  I don't remember the exact terms, but essentially you end up renting the crimper.

It does actually pay to use the WBT crimper as it crimps a "V" in the sleeeve, which the points of the fastening screws fit in for best mechanical and electrical (?) connection.

I had one of these but have decided I don't much like high mass connections, so don't use WBT anymore, and consequently, sold the crimper.

HTH,

Jim
