I think I misunderstood you all this time.

You meant the screw that keeps the entire connector in place in the
back, not a speaker post itself?

Yes, you can use a bolt, washers and a nut to keep it in place.
Drill a hole of the right size through the connector house, and stick
the bolt through it. Tighten and you're all set.

Apologies for the confusion!


I'm probably still not being clear enough... to be specific, it's the
+ L speaker input that the banana jack (I think that's the correct
term) screws into. I unscrewed the banana because, well, I'm an
idiot, but I misunderstood someone's directions (I thought they meant
unscrew it completely, not just loosen it). When I tried to screw it
back in is when the thread inside the hole was broken.
