Speaker Terminal Cup.

Also seen them called: Input Dishes, Speaker Terminals, Speaker Cups, Input Terminals, Input Jacks, a bunch more.

They are not that expensive BTW. Usually only about $2-5 a piece. Sometimes more depending on the quality of the terminal's used and how thick the plastic is. Sometimes they are made of metal.

2-5 bucks
Kris your getting ripped

I never used those on any of my cars.
Mainly because you have to cut the speaker wire.
I always drilled a small hole the size of the wire and siliconed the surrounding to keep it air tight. I only used them when the box was going to be removed from the car.

Spring loaded input terminals is what I have always called them

That's about what he's going to find them for. I almost never use them anymore.

Hell, the Wall had a total of 2 4ga outputs to a terminal block that split that off into 6 + and 6- speaker wire set's.
