And is there a way to push this metal tab back in? It doesn't want to go.

If you have a soldering iron just replace it with some screw terminal banana sockets. They're sturdy, can take almost anything and cheap.

Seconding this if it's an option. I HATE those spring speaker connectors.

Hmm yes. Thanks! I'll have to figure out how to do that. You've given me an idea because there's an audio out port just next to it that I don't use so maybe I can remove that and put the banana in there and just solder it to that tab on the negative terminal.
