Silverback Banana Plugs, Dual Screw Lock, 6 Pair (12 Pieces)

Have a 7.1 system so needed plenty of cable plugs (28 to be precise!), and this set of 24 allowed me to wire up all the connections at the amplifier (14) and five of the speakers at the speaker ends (10), just leaving the rear surrounds with my old plugs attached. The quality of the plugs is excellent. What makes them so different to other plugs I have used in the past is threefold: 1) They have double grub screws to attach the cable in the plug......single screws notoriously come loose and I've had to refit single screw plugs many times to my speakers, especially after they have been moved about a bit. 2) The outer casing screws off the plug section completely, making it a piece of cake to wire them, and leaves a very tidy finish to the plug. 3) The actual size of the plug is much larger/fuller than plugs I've had before. In fact they are 50% larger than the ones i just replaced. That doesn't mean they are over-sized, but rather the plugs really have to be pushed firmly into the speaker posts to get them in, meaning the connection must be very very good, and highly unlikely they will ever come out of the posts when moving speakers about. Brilliant set of plugs for the price.

Sewell Banana plugs from Amazon. A well made metal product at a good price helping to make neater speaker wiring for at least 2 x 5-1 surround sound installation from one set. These plugs enable quicker re-positioning of the speaker picture without the hassle of fiddling round the back of amplifiers attaching bare wires to different sound out posts, great. Once the Sewells are attached to each speaker lead with 2 screws for added security, just pull them out and push them in to another position. Once you are happy with the sound set up you may never have to touch them again, but can sit back and feel happy that tight fitting plugs are always giving the best contact for your speaker signals. With all the components available now being attached to ever more comprehensive amplifiers, being able to need only a light and a mirror to see the back of even a tight space installed system to make any speaker moves, one use alone has paid back the outlay in my view. The rest is all free. If the back of the amplifier is in view at all times you get the added bonus of a good professional looking installation. Add some small gauge cable tidy and the spiders have even less of a playground for you to hoover around.

These banana plugs are decently built, however I found that connecting them to the wires is time consuming and fiddly because they are attached by small screws. When attacking several wires having to adjust all these small screws becomes time consuming and a pain. The plugs are OK for small jobs, but when attaching several wires patience runs out. Aside from that complaint, the plugs are cheap and represents a nice value for the money. Quality is fine and made out of metal.

Excellent product and really easy to use. Using good quality cable resulted in a secure grip in the plug. No problems plugging into the amp, although I did expect the plug to go 'all the way in' - but perhaps this is more to do with the amp than the plugs. Only downside was that one of the black plugs was broken. The plug works by removing a screwed sheath to reveal the screws inside which hold the cable in place. Once the cable is inserted, the sheath is then screwed back over the top. On the second plug I pulled out of the pack, the actual 'banana' part (as well as a 'pin' inside) came away from the body of the plug. I'm sure this can be pushed back in, however, it is a tight squeeze, and as I only really needed 5 pairs (currently), the broken one remains in the pack with it's sister 'good spare'. This was the only downside, and if I did require all 6 (which is what was paid for), then I would be miffed, however, as I had a job to do over the weekend, it met my needs just fine. I am not going to send the whole pack back (and undo all the work), just for this plug (unless of course the suppliers would like to send me a replacement spare... to get this up to a 5 star review). Delivery was also exceptionally quick - so this added a 'star' as well.

After buying an amp I wanted to have a solid way of connecting my cables to the amp. This product was exactly what I wanted. Each plug is of a metal construction and have two screws (top and bottom) to fix the speaker cable to the plug, fits firmly and works really well. My only odd querk - is why 6 pairs? For 5.1 setups, you have 5 speakers and a (active) sub (so if your like me you end up with a spare pair). The connectors are solid so you're unlikely to thread them or break any, so having a spare is a little odd! I guess it might be there for those with a passive sub perhaps? but surely most people dont do that do they? Excellent value, good quality.

These banana plugs have a couple advantages over most other plugs I have used where the speaker cable is screwed down. Firstly the body of the plug is quite narrow and and the screws actually go all the way to the other side of the inside of the plug - so many of these types of plug have screws that do not screw in far enough which can mean that the screw does not grip the cable tight enough before the screw goes all the way through and becomes loose. Even though they are narrow 12 guage cable is no problem - 11 guage may even fit. Secondly the grip in the speaker socket is pleasingly tight. Ignore the others who say that the plug is too big - I would suggest that many of them do not know they have to remove the plastic safety plugs from their speaker/amp sockets. My Audiolab Amp has quite narrow speaker sockets and these fit no problem with minimal effort.

購入したスピーカーがバイワイヤリング対応だったので、せっかくだからと挑戦→端子の数がLRで8箇所にアンプの 端子部分も加えてピッタリ12箇所分という当製品を購入。 外見（筒の部分？）は一見すると金属製に見えますがプラスチックのような樹脂製なので、持った時・触った時に妙な 安っぽさを感じますが、否！それと実用性とは関係ない話です、作りは値段の割りにしっかりしてますし、印字されて いる文字が赤・黒で6本ずつに色分けられているのが地味にデカイｗ バイワイヤリング接続時はコードが色々とアレでして、正確に接続するためにこの色分けでかなり楽になりました。 バナナプラグとしての精度も全く問題ありません、コード固定・端子固定ともに強固に可能です。

No valen lo que cuestan. Precio 124% superior a los Nakamichi y son iguales. Parecen fabricados por la misma empresa. Y digo esto porque tengo los dos. Me siento estafado. Recomendado solo para quienes tirar su dinero.

Ich bin mit diesen Bananensteckern sehr zufrieden. Ich konnte meine 2,5mm Kupferkabel sehr gut in die Plugs einführen und befestigen. Dazu habe ich zunächst ein Kabel von der Ummantelung befreit und festgestellt, dass eine Länge von ca. 1cm ausreicht, um die Kupferlitze mit beiden Schrauben zu kontakten und dass das offene Kabel nicht aus den Plugs heraus hängt. Ich kann leider nicht mit Sicherheit beurteilen, dass sich der Klang in irgend einer Form verbessert hat, jedoch kann ich mich nun darauf verlassen, dass ein optimaler Kontakt zu meinem SONY STR-DH840 (http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00BSB0JYW/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_2) hergestellt ist. Für einen fairen Preis bekommt man hier sehr funktionale und hübsche Bananenstecker.
