Except for that i don't see the point.
And trust me, sometimes point to point wiring sound better! 😉
Are you designing a Rafale? 😉

Produce HEAVY SPL! 🙂
Lol!!
No my friend, just a former draftsman with too many projects. 🙂
There is a point that you have not seen.
More on this later.

The main board will sit horizontally in the top of the cabinet.
The smaller board will sit vertically, attached to the back and aligned to the main board for jumpers.
There will be a heavy piece of smoked glass that will sit atop the cabinet.
This can be removed to access the boards and mainly the select switch.
I know the switch usually goes on the back of the rear panel, this is a little different.

It matters in the sense that connections are the bane of signal quality, so the fewest practical and why historically I ran the speaker wires without any external connectors.

I had wondered about that also. Just makes sense. All those high quality copper components and wire.
Then send it through brass and tin.
So would you say most enthusiast try to eliminate terminals from their designs?
They can be very convenient. But at a cost to signal quality?

some choose to lose the spade connectors and solder wires at the drivers, banana jacks on the back panel still offer robust proven connections. what you described doing earlier was adding another wire to driver and then to the Xover.
conductivity between brass and copper isn't worth missing sleep over, mechanical robustness and quality plating is more important here. as discussed ad nausem on other threads.
in my experience, PCB traces with large components are the weak links of reliable connections much more so than wired crimped spade connectors!

I just bought the Dayton HD binding posts.
I might have a tad too many male terminals on my boards though. 🙂
I am considering hard soldering the wires to the PCB and using female terminals for the drivers.
One of the problems with the original crossovers was the wires breaking off at the PCB.
But they were made in 1975 after all.
