Description of 🔌 KabelDirekt – Banana Plugs – 5 Pairs (for Speaker Wire, AWG 10-16, Enhance Speaker Connections, amplifiers, A/V receivers, Power amplifiers & Stereo Systems, Fixing Screws, Gold Plated)

Simple, fast, flexible: Banana plugs fit directly into binding posts, saving you the hassle of screwing in or unscrewing speaker wire – especially when space is tight. They’re compatible with a range of wire diameters up to AWG 10 (2×1.5mm2-2×6mm2). Secure connection: Leaf springs ensure the plug remains securely connected to the socket for optimal contact, while the dual screw locks guarantee the speaker wire stays securely connected to the plug. Interference-free sound: Premium 24K gold plating on all internal and external surfaces protects against oxidization for a lifetime of use. 36 months manufacturer warranty. NOTE: Amplifier binding posts often have tiny plastic caps inside them that you’ll need to remove before inserting a banana plug. Please refer to your amp’s user guide for further details.

Too big - seems too big

Looks very good but too big. I bent the connector and tried to insert it into the wall plate. Edit: Well actually after the first use the leaf springs compress to the point where they are smaller than other banana forks. So you think they're really heavy and dense. . . no, they also come in a nice packaging compared to other fork bags. The rest of the forks cost 0.88 per unit compared to 1.2 for KD. In the photos, the right ones are KD, the top row are banana plugs that have been inserted into…

Pros
  • Simple, fast, flexible: Banana plugs are plugged directly into the connector pins and save you the hassle of twisting or unscrewing speaker cables, especially when space is limited. They are compatible with wires of different sizes up to AWG 10 (2x1.5mm²-2x6mm²)
Cons
  • So far so good

Your search for high-quality speaker tips ends here.

I used these with Monster Cable 12 ga speaker cable. If you have a couple of bench vises and a small flat head screwdriver you should be fine. I pulled the wire out of the insulation about an inch and used a vise to hold the wire while I inserted it into the connector. Be sure to loosen the terminal screws until the male thread no longer appears in the connector.2. Rotate the connector in the same direction as the speaker wire, and fully insert the speaker wire into the connector.3. First…

Pros
  • NOTE. Amplifier connector pins often have tiny plastic caps inside that must be removed before the banana plug can be inserted. For more information, see your amplifier's manual. Visit amazon.com/kabeldirekt for more accessories
Cons
  • Legacy model

Almost like Monoprice 121919 but not quite

I couldn't decide between the Monoprice 121919 Affinity Series and this KableDirekt model so I bought both. They're both gold-plated with 6-blade springs, twin-wire setscrew, and screw-on aluminum caps (except Monoprice has a large cap covering the setscrews, and KableDirekt has a thin cap with a color-coded stripe leaving an open set of screws). With the caps removed they look almost identical with the following differences: 1) KableDirekt has a finer cap thread, probably metric (too lazy to…

Pros
  • 36 month manufacturer warranty
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
