I have been using a 14 AWG copper speaker wire with MX banana plugs and custom crimp on other end for long now.

Thought of changing it to a 10 AWG copper wire. Did a DIY install of knukoncept ofc wire and pants with Sewell banana connects. Once i did it observed more bass response and warmth in the sound signature.

Now wanted to try 8 AWG speaker cable. I have a 25 feet 8 AWG ofc speaker wire bought last year.

Here is the problem:

The regular banana plugs doesn't fit the wire gauge. Wonder what connectors to use? Will there be a bigger banana connectors available, where to source it? Please advice.
 
Connectors for cables that thick it's best to contact your local Electricity Department ;)
On a serious note, If you're open to Spades, then this is your best option, you can crimp thick cables on these.
