    Not the best designed banana plug but it works and it was very well needed for the application at hand.

    These banana jacks make hooking up speakers so much easier and a lot quicker. No more stripping the jacket off of wire, getting fringes of wire everywhere if it doesnt strip correctly the first time. There’s a connection point like a needle that inserts directly into the speaker wire to make a direct connection. Then plug directly into the reciever and/or speakers snd go. I’m considering buying more and changing all my connections to utilize banana jacks.

    Works great as long as you have wires that are 14ga or thicker. 16ga and 18ga wires don't stay secured and come unplugged easily. I switched to 12ga speaker wire and I'm glad I did. These plugs make it super easy to plug and play. Also make changing speaker setup easier if you decide to move a speaker to better spot. Get the open box if you can. Same quality just cheaper.

    I'm not sure how much better these make the audio quality. They sound good and it's very nice that you don't have to deal with the audio wires directly. However, they don't always stay in place and sometimes require reattachment to the wires directly.

    Pretty easy to install. Decent quality but if you have the money for a nicer pair I’d go with that. Only a small pin that you have to try to sink into the center of the cable. Doesn’t seem to be the best way to connect a wire to something in my mind anyway. That being said, they work.

    Extremely easy to put together and operate.Was using the old wire to connector way and it almost melted my box.Dont make the mistake I made invest into these and skip the accident part or possible permanent damage or car fire.Also there is more power being drawn where it needs to go.

    I initially did not use the rocketfish speaker wires, and these banana plugs were not as compatible. The wires were loose and connection did not feel secure. So I ended up using the rocketfish 16 gauge pure copper wire and it worked like a charm. Connection is snug and secure. No issue with the sound quality - I am using Denon AVR X4700H.

    Does not work on Sony speakers

    The binding post on Sony speakers are shorter. The male spring end is a to long and will not snap into the binding post. They will easily fall out. The smaller wedge couplings have to be used to keep the wire from pulling out. If the couplings are reused they are easy to split. These are high quality. Thanks for making them.

    These were a little tricky to figure out, but once I got it they worked fine. The instructions weren't great, which made it take longer than it needed to. Make sure you press the needle end into the tip of the cable before tightening the whole thing closed, as it won't necessarily make contact otherwise. They work, but standard banana plugs are more straightforward. I docked em a star for the setup being tricky.

    It took me a couple of tries to be able to cut the wire correctly to let the plugs slip on. They make connecting so much easier, with a cleaner look.

    "Meh" design and expensive

    So expensive. Had to buy them b/c they were the only option and I needed banana plugs ASAP. The wire connection design isn't the greatest, either. With mild force (which admittedly one shouldn't normally encounter with speaker wires, but still a good "safety" test) you can pull the speaker wire out from these plugs. Banana plug connection designs I've used in the past don't have this problem - they cinch the wires to the plug better and more securely...and with less parts. I think these are a little over-engineered.

    These are the perfect solution to the challenge of trying to twist your speaker wire tight enough to slip into the slots in the amp's contact ports. Follow the instruction as to which wire gauge you are hooking up to the amp. Make sure the little gold pin is entering the center of the wire for proper contact. Twist the collar up snug and tight against the gold base.

    These are awesome plugs, easy to use and to connect your wires. Did have some small issues with them though, on my main front speakers I use Monster Cable, had to trim the installation to get to fit. on my front height speakers I used 14 AGW wire, was difficult to get wire to stay in plug, the compression fittings were to large to hold wire. But in all, I will use them again and recommend same.
