Default Audio question

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask about this or not. Let know if it needs to be in a different thread. My question, is what is everyone doing for speaker connections in their bags. I am looking for quick connectors to allow removal of bags for maintenance etc. Thanks in advance.

Bob

You might consider an SAE connector.

I was going to try the Audio section but it wouldn't allow me to post in that forum for some reason. Thanks.

Not sure why you can't post there unless you you have to have a certain number of post or something, if you like I can copy and paste your post there to see if you get more responses

I prefer these weatherproof connectors. They work great for that application.

Buelligan, do those connectors require any special crimp tool? I looked at the Deutsch connectors, but the crimp tool I saw was like $250 dollars. Thanks
