Supra Speaker connectors
Supra have two ranges of speaker connectors:
The CombiCon range, can be fitted to most large diameter
speaker cables, either through the middle, or "end on"
of the "CombiCon Body".
Supplied with either 4mm Banana / BFA "tips" or Spade
connectors (or as a "kit" containing both types), both
types can be unscrewed and inter-changed to suit changing requirements,
without removing the "body" of the CombiCon from the speaker
cable.

Note: the original CombiCon body and tips used a fine thread - new
types now have a larger M6 thread, which is not compatible with
the earlier type.
CombiCon Crimp Bodies
CombiCon Crimps are a new introduction to the range and comprise
a specially designed Crimp connector, which is available in a number
of sizes: 1 mm, 2 mm, 4 mm and 6 mm (to suit different conductor
diameters), plus the special sized Sword CrimpBody, codenamed CB03
which are slightly larger cable entry than the CB04).
All can be retro-fitted with either Banana / BFA "Tips"
or Spade M6 connectors. Separate colour match sleeves are available
to insulate the terminations.
The Crimp Bodies are best attached using a good quality Crimper,
such as the Pressmaster KSA 0760, which uses EDGE deformation, rather
than centre deformation. Note that once attached to a cable, the
CombiCon Crimp Bodies cannot be easily removed and re-used..
Versions available:
CombiCon Crimp Bodies and Spades are available in 24K Gold-plated
Copper and some versions are also available in Rhodium plated Oxygen
Free Copper.
CombiCon Crimp Banana/BFA Tips are available in 24K Gold or Rhodium
plated Beryllium Copper.

The "second" range of Supra speaker connectors
are shown below:
As seen from top to bottom (in the above picture) are:
Boxcon connectors, (suitable for upgrading
the terminals of amplifiers or loudspeakers) with better qulaity
input/output terminals, that can handle larger diameter speaker
cables.
Supra Fork spade-type connectors
c/w Banana adaptors
Ideal for use with Macintosh/Audio Research amplifiers, that use
grub-screw type connections for their speaker outputs. A useful
Banana convertor is also supplied that allows the Forks to be attached
to existing Banana type connectors, to convert to a spade type connection.
Fork dimensions are:
Max width of spade gap (between the lugs): 4.5 mm
Width of each spade lug: 1.6 mm
Max width of spade lugs: 8 mm
Max cable diameter: 5 mm
Total Length of spade section: 12 mm
Supra Banana plugs (with red/black
covers - now discontinued)
Supra Fork XL connectors (larger spread
of lugs and can accomodate larger cable diameters than Fork). The
grub screw that grips the speaker cables uses an Allen-key (notm
supplied) type hole for tightening up the grub screw.
Fork XL dimensions are:
Max width of spade gap (between the lugs): 6.7 mm
Width of each spade lug: 1.8 mm
Max width of spade lugs: 10.5 mm
Max cable diameter: 5.5 mm
Total Length of spade sectio: 13 mm
