Decent binding post/plate in UK?

smallangryboy · 3rd January 2013, 02:36 PM

Our friends over the pond have the rather marvellous Parts Express, but it's difficult finding a similar resource here in the UK.

Previously I've had speaker binging plates custom made [CNC screen printed] but it's bloody expensive and I didn't fancy just the standard black plastic/gold plated ones.

I was wondering if there was anywhere here that supplied reasonably nice binding plates, maybe aluminium, brushed, chromed or stained that would accommodate 4mm binding posts?

Look at jacmusic, they sell the yamamoto bindingposts for a reasonably price. I don't think you'll find something better at that price. They ship from germany.

Decent: http://www.wilmslow-audio.co.uk/wbt-...posts-27-c.asp But not cheap

Personally I buy all my QUALITY binding posts and cabinet screws / port tubes etc from Monacor UK. Those that Wilmslow supply appear to be Monacor but it's nice to have an account with Monacor and get all your bits trade. You'd be surprised the difference in price to what the usual retailers charge!

Another UK supplier of quality binding posts and other components is "hificollective". Both provide superb service and fast delivery.

Thanks for the tip Toppsy, I'm sure I'm not the first person to be put off by Wilmslow's prices.

Pity Monacor's site comes up as 'This site may harm your computer'

That website is straight out the 80's and the navigation is a little funky!
