The story
CJP Jumper Plates are stamped from solid Grade 1, 99.9999% pure oxygen-free Cardas copper to fit binding posts on 1.5 in (38.1 mm) centres. The dual spade profile fits standard 6.3 mm or larger 9 mm posts, and the plates can be carefully bent to suit a particular terminal layout.
They come in two finishes: CJP R, plated in silver with a flash of rhodium like Cardas connectors, and CJP C in bare copper. Sold in sets of four, enough for one pair of speakers.
Measure centre to centre between the bass and treble posts on one speaker; the plates are made for 1.5 in (38.1 mm) spacing. Choose the plated version where the plates will be handled or exposed to humid air; bare copper will tarnish over time. For posts on other spacings, Cardas 9.5 AWG or 11.5 AWG cable jumpers are the alternative.
