    Great idea not so great in practice

    Great idea but definitely need the top end of the recommended gauge wire otherwise they did not seem to make good connections and were easily pulled apart. Perhaps it was operator error, but put together 8 pairs of wires for speaker connections and had issues with more than half, the problem is getting the higher guage wire to be “pierced” properly and for the connector to solidly hold onto the wire jacket even with the adapter collars.

    Pain in the butt to get on 16 gauge speaker wire. I had to modify the plugs to be able to hold the wire properly.

    A little hassle for the installation (search YouTube for the rocketfish and how to do it). It’s a solid good build but not for everyone.

    Don't connect well to wire

    Unfortunately, these banana plugs work differently than other standard banana plugs. They don't have a way to secure the wire to the plug except for pressing the unstripped wire into a small pin in the center and then relying on a compression sleeve to hold the wire in place. It may work ok for larger wires but still doesn't provide the connectivity of fastening the stripped wire to the pin directly with a screw or sleeve that clamps the wire to the plug.

    These are my go-to banana plugs. The only trouble is that the instruction manual is misleading, I recommend to watch a YouTube tutorial instead.

    This is a great product when used in the appropriate application. I bought it to attach my bookshelf speakers to my DTV... NOT the proper application. I returned it, sadly. I was so hopeful.

    I bought these online without seeing how the speakers hooked up to the receiver. I didn’t need them, so I returned them. Best Buy customer service representative was very friendly and helpful with my return.
