Excellent design and a name steeped in audio history for exceptional cassette decks. Dual set-screws provide a very positive mechanical and electrical connection. Mechanically, the conductor (wire) will break before the set-screws give up their grip.. Electrically, the dual set-screws provide a large area of contact on the inserted conductor.- a good thing where long speaker wire runs can add additional resistance to the load seen by the amplifier. As a home-theater designer and installer I have used many versions of speaker connectors (so called banana plugs) and find these well-designed plugs hold extremely well to the inserted conductor. While requiring a bit more effort to install than the hand-screw type, it is well worth it not to have the conductor detach from the plug while fishing wires through many varieties of audio cabinets and walls. Highly recommended. Read full review

These are advertised as Nakamichi banana plugs, and indeed look very like them. However, they are knock-offs (copies). The quality is not as high as the genuine item - for example, the fixing screws have smaller heads and are not of the same quality, and the lettering rubs off fairly easily (and indeed had done in the packet on a couple of the ones I had bought). Having said that, they are of the same excellent design as the genuine Nakamichi plugs, they work very well, and the price is reasonable. So if you don't mind, go for it.

These male banana plug leads are perfect for making your own test leads and probe adapters. I modified several cables on my ohm meters, etc. to all accept banana plug connectors. Soldering and installing the sleeves is very easy. The leads can accommodate up to a 12 gauge wire.

Over 45 years of hi-fi experience, this is the best plug I've used. Very easy to connect the cable to the plug with screws and perfect contact surface. Feels good when you pull out and plug in different devices. This model has a different banana shape, which makes a good contact even better

With the two screw approach, these banana plugs are great at reliably holding the speaker wire in place. Assembly of the connectors is quite easy and can be done within a minute. The Nakamichi have a great reputation in audio DIY and they deserve it. Great product that's great value of the money!
