Quick Disconnects for audio wiring?

[Frankensuby 10+ year member]

I have all the audio bolted into a 3/4 inch MDF false floor, but as summer comes in, I want to re-do the entire trunk are and make it easy to take everything out (for Auto-X, spirited drives, and occassional hauling of cargo).

What I'm looking at is getting easy disconnects that won't come undone due to playing the system loud. I don't really like the male/female connects that they sell at Home depot, because I find it real hard to disconnect and reconnect them most of the time, and then other times they are too lax.

Any other ideas?

go to a place that sell items for forklifts and get the battery connectors for those

they come in sizes up to 2/0

Do you have a picture?

Otherwise, I think Bullet types might be a solution, but once again, I need to make sure they don't vibrate loose first.

maybe something like this for the power and ground wires? There is NO WAY in hell they will vibrate apart. I drive a truck, and used one of these to power my winch. They fit together TIGHT. May not be what you're looking for, but it's what came to mind first.

found a pic of my use for it. Not a good pic, but you get the idea. IIRC I am using the 350 rated one, but may be the 175. it's the gray thing next to the lic plate. They do come in different colors.

good idea for the power and ground, but I am looking into the speakers as well. I think I'm going to take a trip to Home Depot tomorrow and do some hands on research //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
