    Bought out of pure convince. After research, they seems to be a bit to costly. But I paid for instant availability. Working as I expected. If you need them and are inpatient, then they are likely right up your alley.

    No directions included. A little hard to seat wire exactly right on needle, so that the wire stays in the coupler after fastening. Will need to watch demo videos to understand how to use properly.

    [Employee of bestbuy] The way the banana plug attaches doesn't allow for most wire to properly stay in contact, or stay in at all.

    I have used several different brands of banana plugs over the years and unfortunately, these were horrible. The design for holding the wire in place is flawed. It appears that the small plastic piece included is supposed to act like a compression fitting, but it doesn't; at least not well. I can easily pull the wire from the plug with a gentle tug. I would not recommend using these.

    Do not buy these. Even after you tighten wire you can easily pull it out from back. They use a spike that is pushed directly down center of speaker wire. Had bought with rocketfish speaker wire. I would recommend Crutchfield alligator clips which I had purchased previously. I thought I could use these in a pinch but that was definitely not the case. Returned.

    They work ok. Have to strip the wire back just a little to get the center pin to stick in there, then at least 2 attempts to tighten before it holds. Works better for larger looser wire.

    I needed some extra banana plugs while rearranging my AV equipment. These were the only ones available in store. For me, these did NOT work. The compression sleeve did not hold. I returned the product.

    Terrible design to push into the end of the wire to make a connection. They all fell off as soon as moved the receiver back into place. I tried several times to get these to work, but could not get them to where I could rely on them.

    Great concept, but unless speaker wire is thick enough, it does not hold in place and comes out. I believe a set screw to hold wire in place would help this product tremendously.

    Would not recommend. I purchased these to use with of course speaker wire. These were a pain to connect the wire inside, the sire was very thin and would not fit. Was a lot easier to run the wire though the back of the speaker. Came with some time connectors which also did not work, Wasn't needed, and also they are expensive. If you don't need them (You probably wont) avoid the hassle.

    I was dissapointed with this item. First of all these plugs are meant to be used with larger size speaker cables at least 10 or 14 gauge. It has a 'spear' type tip that should bury into the middle of the cable but it will not work with gauges that are 16, the cable will just easily pull off the plug. They should show the inside of the connector on the package so that the buyer is aware of what they are getting.
