im building a sub box and im planning on using 8 awg for the subs. so i was wondering if anybody knew a place where i could get a speaker terminal cup that will take 8awg or close to it? i would prefer a sqaure terminal cup over a round but any input would be good. thanks.

8 AWG, a bit extreme? Spring loaded terminal cups might take that size of the wire but the electrical surface area is so small on them you won't be gaining anything.
