Using banana plugs made life easier when installing my 7.1 system. Undecided at the store, I picked up these Dynex plugs along with the RocketFish version. BIG difference. The Dynex use a simple set screw to hold the wire in place. When the plug is pushed into a speaker, the fit is nice and tight, but when I attempt to remove the plug, the plastic cover slides off. This makes removing the plug a bit difficult. For a few extra dollars, the RocketFish (similar to Monster Quick Lock) has two parts that thead together to hold your wire in place. Instead of a set screw, the wire is fanned out and compressed down, providing greater surface contact for the speaker wire. Also very easy to pull plugs from speaker terminals. The Dynex will be replaced by a complete set of the RocketFish (RF-G1146 ) plugs.

I like the connection of this particular plug. Its a screw in type. Just strip and screw in. Fits the speaker plug with a snug fit. Brass is no gold but works well for the price.

Banana plugs for tight spaces

These banaplugs are connecting some cerwin vega at-15's and an onkyo receiver. The receiver has its connections pretty close to each other. This makes it especially hard when using stripped wire. So that is where these come in. They are gold plated and are very slim. The head of the banana plug swivels so you dont have twisted wires. When inserting the wire into the banana plug there are two bolts that need to tighten on the wire seems like one is closer to the tip and the other one is close to the back of it. This is nice considering it's slim and one screw would most likely not hold the wire if pulled with a bit of force or a foot catching the wire. I did however manage to stab myself a couple of times since a flat screwdriver is needed to secure the wire. The one thing I found very annoying was the rubber sleeve. You have to stretch it and pull over the screws not an easy task.

I'm not a fan of bare wire ends, so decided to get a set of Banana-end cables... only to find out ... THEY DON'T EXIST! You gotta make your own! So, after a lot of price comparing, I realized Best Buy was the lowest price place to get the wire and ends to make said cable!
These ends work well for my needs, but I would rather have bought a pair of pre-made cables, to begin with, instead of having to make my own.
Why don't speakers come with RCA jacks on them, instead of the binding posts? You can buy pre-made RCA cables all day long! If you buy a new set of speakers and want banana end cables, just realize you'll need to make your own... unless you wanna pay big bucks (a few hundred) for pre-made ones.

Pricey for banana plugs

Surprisingly, these are require loosening a screw and then tightening around the speaker wire. If you're using stranded speaker cable, it's best to tin the wire with a soldering iron first. Was expecting bayounet/push to connect internals. But they provide a solid connection. No indication of connector style on packaging.

Some frustration when using really small gauge wir

Using a 22 GA wire was difficult to assemble, and is probably not designed for that small. I think anything larger would work well. There are two set screws to get a firmer grip, but the screw heads are small and the screw driver slips easy. But banna plugs are much more convienent than running bare wires.

As indicated above, these plugs are a good alternative if you're tired of dealing with bare wires which can fall out when moving the stereo and can be difficult to install in the first place. Once the banana plugs are installed on the end of the speaker wires, just plug them in.

If there's anybody out there that has messed with speaker wire you know how hard it is to connect those little speaker wires to the back of the receiver. With these I would never do it the old way again. Sure, there could be others out there that do a better job performance wise, but I found that these are a great price and do the job just fine. I was skeptical at first to try these, but now that I have... I'm glad I did!
