🍌 GearIT Banana Plugs: High-Quality Pin Plug Closed Screw Type Connectors, 24K Gold Plated, 6 Pairs (12 Pieces) Review

These are excellent speaker terminals with one caveat. The pins are hard to see in the photo. These are not cross pins but flexible braided gold plated copper wire so they mate with the spring terminals for good contact and current carrying capacity. You also look very beautiful. However, there is an issue that limits the number of installs. The outer barrels are conductive, so if they ever touch, you'll short out the amp. This precludes their use in car radios where there is a lot of movement.

Funny how Amazon hides all the bad reviews until you buy something. I wish I had seen some of them earlier. I just spent a day and a half revising my system to keep it short. Now I have to take it apart and wrap everything with tape. The whole point of using them is to make them easier to plug in and unplug, possibly sound better and most importantly look pretty, well it can't look pretty if you still have to wrap it in black tape. This is a very silly design, it should be isolated and…

A little work to install them but they should hold up well and I like that the case is plastic. So if they come into contact with the cases and are live, it will not cause a short circuit. Update: These have been working fine for about a month now they are starting to fall out of the speaker terminals due to looseness. I don't even separate them. I leave them in the speakers but move the speakers from time to time and now they fall out of the connectors and don't make good contact when I put…

I'm not sure what the designer was thinking with the metal case here. It is conductive and will cause a short circuit. I had to wrap each of them with duct tape or risk frying my receiver. The installation took too long and the connection was finicky at best. My Sony receiver has restarted from time to time due to a bad connection. I couldn't figure out which one and ended up cutting them all off. In the end I settled on Revain connectors. They don't have a right angle, but are much cheaper…

I was willing to write a really good 5 star review for these forks. but then I researched again. What are these forks actually made of? In the description at the bottom of the page, GearIT claims they are copper, gold plated and non-magnetic. But one of the pictures says they are solid brass with gold plating. Judging by my photo, they are definitely magnetized! I'm really fed up with all those crappy banana plugs I keep finding! Companies seem to misrepresent them! Some of the Sewells even…

This product has quality issues for many reasons. When I first applied them, some of my metal pressure/contact points failed. Notice the wire on the side of the tips on these plugs? This is necessary to create a good fit for your gear. If this wire is not sufficiently separated from the connector, you will not get a secure fit and it will not stay in your device. It is not regulated and should not be. Some of my plugs had the wire pushed in too far, preventing it from pressurizing my mechanism.

Когда я впервые увидел эти штекеры, я понял, что должен попробовать их, потому что обычные штекеры типа "банан" не имеют достаточной площади контакта и силы удержания, как мне pleases. This design solves both problems and does it in an interesting way. The spring part is actually a separately molded rod that is inserted through a slot in the side of the connector. The spring protrudes too far to retain its original shape after it is inserted into the connector post and constantly flexes to the…
