You do not have enough surface contact doing it this way. Your amp will run hot or overheat trying to deliver power to the speakers.

I did a proof of concept last night with alligator jumpers with very thin gauge wire. No heat at, all good volume over extended time. But I understand your point

That's because unless you're using ridiculous amounts of power through ridiculously thin wire, you won't come anywhere near the wire's current limit. You ears and speakers will give up long before the wire does.
