Excellent Product
This was not the first time I've purchased these connectors. I've been happy with them over a number of years and buy more whenever I add more speakers.

Plug tip is not resilient
I purchased a bunch of these exact plugs many years ago to make speaker wires. They are good for the most part and are still shiny and clean with no oxidation after almost 15 years. One problem with them is that the metal used for the tip has no spring or resiliency to it. Once it gets compressed in a connection they stay that way without bouncing back to shape. I had to use a thin tack pin to insert into the pin slits to "pull" the slits back out to increase the pin diameter and tension. The tip also becomes kind of wobbly in the process. It can be tight some what by twisting it clockwise. They work, but not great quality.

Yes we have no bananas today
Bending wire over the inner piece is something I didn't get good at. There was difficulty screwing it in. Is there a better design?

NOT GOOD...
This banana plug was a gross disappointment... It was a pain in every way. difficult to add to cable, the plug in itself was pinched in and not flared out as shown in the add. I had to flare them out myself in order to get them to plug in snugly.. After a short amount of time the plating started flaking off and changing color. This is unacceptable in audio, at any price point. Spend a little more money and get a better quality product.. You'll thank yourself.

Base Diameter Banana Plug Wide
The base diameter of the banana plug is to wide. I had to pinch it with pliers to make it fit on the female connector.

Excellent Quality
These things work great, are easy to set up, and are the way to go for speaker cable connections. I definitely recommend them.

Work like they are supposed to
They are banana plugs so there isn't much that can go wrong. They hold onto the wires and stay put in the back of the stereo and speakers and work like they should. I am not enough of an audiophile to know if there is a difference between these and significantly more expensive versions.

Very nice plugs
nice fit. I soldered the connections, and they worked great. Again, shipping took way too long

Really hard to put wires into
I've done several pairs of these and every time I have a really hard time getting the wires into these. It seems like they could make the initial cavity that the wires squeeze into larger, then have it taper down as you tighten. Instead, the hardest part is getting the threads to connect.

Solid build and quality + good price
Easy to use and the sound is same as without the banana plugs, except now when I inevitably move each year or decide to rearrange furniture, the headache of fumbling with speaker wire is gone!

I've had these pairs before. Good quality for my basic HT system and easy to install.
