Ok, never used their stuff, but on this set of Bi-Amp cables I plan too.
Heres the Question:::>
Do you ~{HAVE to use WBT's Crimper/Cutter}~ when making spade connections, or an you use something else?
The spades themselves and all nesessary hardware is priced tolerable but their crimp/cut off tool, (which they say is the only one you can use) is quite pricey and can only be used with their stufff, very over done IMO. Com'on, 14k gold plated! Yes very nice stuff, not bashing them on that but the tool is something else.
Even with a Business license it still cost me 49.00 smakers + shipping for their Crimp tool!
If there is another brand, with a slot kit or what ever may work and is more reasonabley priced, "please" let me know who makes it, where to find it, and what it costs.
WBT related Question:::>
Those of you that have used their cable building products, what do you think of their stuff???
Specificly wire end connectors of all types & also their Top Line Binding Posts?
I'm looking at using their Top Line~WBT-6080 Silver Sandwich spades with the Elastomer shock asorber and their 12-AWG Crimp Sleeves. Hence the question above on their Pagon Gods GOLD Crimp tool!
I just hate to spend that much if I don't have too! Not sure if I will like the ends enough (though they come extremly highly recommended) to continue to use their wire end products. I expect I will like them, but you never know.
They are very well respected in the industry and hold a number of patents, (20) just pertaining to audio connectors.
So am I "screwed" into using their WBT-0403 Gold plated crimping pliers for my situation?
Calling all WBT cable builders out there....
Thanks
Geoff
