Forget Monster Cable garbage these are 1/4 the price and 200% better quality! [Posted on 2008-02-09]
Trust me people, do NOT drink that Monster garbage kool aid. I bought 5 pair of these, and they are of THE best quality out there. They are very simple to install (my wife did them, while i DID THE WALL FISH). I tried to $20 Monster Cable, because I did not think these would be here in time, they went back to Radio Shack for credit for an SPL. I just ordered 5 more pair, I needed 2 more, and I wanted a couple extras. 5 STAR quality ALL the way.
All Plugs and No Complaints [Posted on 2008-02-12]
I purchased five sets of these Banana Plugs to install on the receiver side of my home theater system. I hooked these up to the end of some 12 gauge Raptor Speaker Wire with no problems; simple installation.
The plugs attach solidly and the cables seem to stay put once everything is together. I like being able to unplug and plug in my cables without having to fight with the screw downs on the back of the receiver. These make connections much more convenient.
Dissapointed [Posted on 2008-02-18]
I've found that wires easily come out of the plugs. The smooth slug used to compress the wires have poor grip. For some reason it seems the cap that is used to screw down onto the internal slug also easily becomes loose. I'm really disappointed and would not purchase again.
Impressed [Posted on 2008-04-03]
The quality at this price point is unmatched. You would be hard pressed to find better quality even at a much higher price point. I took no points off for the lack of directions because of those 2 facts, and it took me under 5 seconds to find a guide online. For piece of mind, I wrapped them in electrical tape which was probably unnecessary but I'd rather be safe than sorry.
The other day I bought some plugs locally that cost twice as much because I was being impatient. Big mistake. They were returned the same day and I'm back here buying these again.
A much easier way to connect your HT wires [Posted on 2008-10-18]
These work great. I was having a little bit of trouble with the screw down connectors on the back of my receiver, but the receiver's connectors also accepted banana plugs. So, I ordered these and they definitely made it a lot easier. The connectors are well made and work great. Make sure you have a TINY screwdriver as the set screws in these need to be tightened down all the way, or the screw on cover will not go on.
