Hi gaz! I googled 'a-spot' and am now much more aquainted with female anatomy. Thanks!
There's 6 Ohms of resistance in the voice coil, unavoidable, essential, accounted for in the design.
There's maybe another Ohm in the wires and connectors, but usually less.
A BAD connection hurts. And is somewhat common. But a good connection is a good connection.
If you have a specific number of Mhos you need to shave out of a connection, that formula shows:
1) there is no way the answer will be Zero Ohms
2) conductance changes as Square Root of change of pressure and softness, so a 10:1(!) increase of pressure is only 3:1 change of Ohms
3) in math the hardness can go to infinitely soft; but the top ten conductors come in a limited range of hardness; you can't thread Mercury and you don't want naked Lithium.
Don't over-think.
{RANT} Don't push your connectors into corners. PC, TV, Hi-Fi... connectors should be accessible.

What do you particularly dislike about them? I have some which I took out of someone's Berning amp, and have put them in the spares box with the all the others.
I've just realised I have used them on the Ripole subwoofers. I agree, a lot of metal, but they screwed down on the spades OK. And they were free!

What does "far too much metal" mean?
Why is that a problem other than perhaps a physical interference with something else nearby?
The electron charge mostly rides in the field on the outside of the conductor, but this is frequency dependent. Too much metal wil have some frequencys in the outside field, but at the other end (LF) the electrons will flow inside the metal. If there is little metal then the LF signal has to stay outside.
I you are going to spend the big bucks the Eichmann or WBT NextGen.

You're talking about skin effect in a wire. But here it's just a simple matter of connecting two wires together through a common conductor over a very short distance. The amount of skin effect that might be encountered in that situation is so small as to be completely insignificant.
You won't be able to measure or hear the difference.
They are bare metal, something I am not to fond of. I sometimes clear heatshrink such terminals for isolation.
