Speaker terminal replacement?

[toejam]

Just got a pair of Eminence Texas Heat speakers to put in my Crate 4x12. The guy who I got the speakers from took them out of a Fender where they were soldered in. There's still quite a bit of solder left on the terminals, and I can't get the push-on/quick-connect speaker clips in my cabinet on them because of the excess solder. I took my soldering iron and removed as much solder as I could, but I guess too much heat and bending made one of the terminals break off. Do they sell replacement terminals where I could easily put on a new one, or should I take it to a tech for replacement? I might as well do both speakers, since there's a few good globs of solder still there. All I wanted to do was easily disconnect the speakers and put new ones in without messing with the iron.

Solder the wires to what is left of it and forego those sissy quick disconnects...

Good point! Thanks, John.
