[TCML] Terry filter - are banana plugs okay?

Hi Thomas,
 
Banana plugs will be fine. It's just a question of aesthetics vs  
convenience. Some folks have even used spade lugs and wing nuts without  problems.

Hello,

Are banana plugs okay to connect the NST to the terry  filter, and the
primary to the NST? I have seen several designs  e.g.

using  banana plugs. Are these strong enough? Specs usually indicate
relatively  low voltage

I'd like to be able to disconnect all components quickly,  and banana
plugs look good in that respect.

However, this terry  filter looks really good -very  elegant.
