Review on 12 Pairs of Gold Plated Deadbolt Flex Pin Banana Plugs for Spring Loaded Speaker Terminals by Major Lindsay

Benefits Looks great Easier to insert after first try than bare copper strands For outdoor use, a coating on the braid and a coating on bare copper can do a little to prevent some polarity corrosion than some wire markers like crests or stripes. Disadvantages BIG CON - Shorting amplifiers if the connections are too close together. This. Most of the time I've been trying out spring style amps/speakers. Clear heat shrink tubing with adhesive on the brass is a workaround. The gold appearance looks nice, but doesn't detract from the sound quality for better or worse (with the exception of the rear section). It's an illusion. There are tiny o-rings that are easily lost and should probably be spares as they don't stay on the connector at all during reassembly or removal.
