AR55, Thank you for obviously spending the time responding to my post! Unfortunately I'm not physically able to make my own, but you have helped me tremendously finding the correct size spades for my loudspeakers!!!! No far, Blue Jeans Cable appears to be a good candidate for me. The Belden 5000UE (Gray jacket, 12 AWG) for an 8' length is only $36 ea. Yes, reasonably priced. Thanks again!
