Best Connectors

The Crutchfield Banana Connectors are the best I have ever used. Very tight connection and tight fit on wires, I used 12 gauge wire.

Great Banana Plugs

I have had plugs where the end came off in the input, others where the wire pulled out of the plug and still others where the plug was loose in the input. I read that some felt that the plug was too big for the receiver input. These plugs did not want to go into my Denon 4500 inputs. A pair of pliers and a squeeze of the end of the plug, problem solved. These plugs provide a very secure connection with speakers, receiver and wire. I highly recommend them.

Crutchfield Banana Connectors are too large

These plugs are too large and do not fit. Way too large. Crutchfield's tech supports claims they get 20 calls a week that their banana brand plugs don't fit. I would need a hammer to smash it in. They want you to crimp the head of the plug with plyers. For whatever reason their plugs are larger than other brands. Crimping would weaken for long term use. The Customer Service is nice when you have questions, or are ordering, but when you have a return it's a different story. I'm not so happy.

Awesome

Not bad, I suggest putting a TINY bit of blue loctite on the threads when threading the barrel on the banana connector. Otherwise, i love them. There are two set screws to clamp onto the wire and holds the wire great. Very nice for ease of setup and ease of moving speakers around to clean.

Gets the job done

Solid build and good when using on 12g speaker wire. I found it difficult to push the connector into the receiver compared to other banana connector I've used in the past. Also the metal sleeve seems to unscrew itself due to the speaker vibration over time. The lugs used to secure the speaker wire were unfazed from the vibration.

Crutchfield Banana Connectors

After looking at numerous banana plug connectors on the internet I decided to purchase these based on the design and the many positive reviews that they received. I was not disappointed, as they are very good quality and provide great connectivity. Crutchfield even throws in a small screwdriver for connecting your bare wire to the plugs....how convenient!

Well made and easy to assemble to my speaker wires. The provided screwdriver is made of cheap metal and will deform. You may need to use your own screwdriver by the time you get to the last few connectors.

Crutchfield banana plugs

These are great plugs! There are no directions but are self explanatory. There is an included screwdriver for the two set screws. Unscrew the cap. Loosen the set screws. Twist your wire tightly and twist the plug on in the same direction and it will keep your wires tight. Tighten the set screws. They do take a little effort to push into your speakers and receiver but once in they will not slip out. Thanks for another great product Crutchfield!

The Best

Great price for something that works. I bought another top of the line brand and the screws were tiny and were easy to loose. The other brand was difficult to assemble and Crutchfield's were easy to work with I put 4 on in the same amount of time for doing one of the more expensive brand. I love messing with my audio system but I don't like tedious non productive results. Crutchfield's are well made and easy to use and best of all less expensive.

Great plugs, little too shiny for taste

Good quality, fairly easy to install. For me, this style of the two pressure screws is preferable to the type when you insert the wiring and then fold it over the lip and tighten the jacket over that. Minor complaint that the jacket is shiny chrome, making the black and especially red writing harder to see, especially in dark spaces. A matte or nickle finish would be more functional and also more attractive. Or even better, use bold red and black solid banding or make the entire jackets red and black themselves.

Way Too Tight

I'm mystified that so many people seem to love these things. I have one setup with a big Marantz receiver and B&W speakers, another with Marantz and Def Tech, and my main home theater with Marantz and Golden Ear Tritons. With every piece of equipment I was very uncomfortable with the amount of force necessary to get the plugs into the terminals. Likewise extracting them. I stopped using them and will go back to my Monsters, which fit fine-I just need more of them. They are well made, but unusable.

Crutchfield Banana Connectors

These are pretty decent and I'm glad I went with banana plugs this time around. Each bag of these came with a little screwdriver so you don't have to go dig up a jewelers set if you don't want. I didn't see that in the description, so it was a pleasant surprise when I opened the bag. I really liked being able to just slide the wire inside and tighten the screws and my fingers really appreciated it. There were two things that bothered me about them, 1) the cover unscrews up over the tip, which threw me off at first and there was no note/picture about that, 2)some of the covers don't seem to want to stay screwed tight. The dual set screws work great and hold the wire securely. The colors on the cover let you easily keep track of positive/negative wiring. All the plugs fit very securely when plugged in and look really nice. Each pair of plugs came in its own little bag so it was easy to grab a few and know you had evenly matched sets.

Easy to use. I used with Crutchfield flate 16 gauge wire. The cover easily unscrews which can be a problem. One of the clips wasn't drilled out as deep as the rest so I could not seat the wire as deeply. Very snug fit in new speakers. Used for new Paradigm home theater speakers and seem to be working well. I am concerned that there is no insulation where in some instances with binding posts that are too close together there may be some contact.

I've never used banana connectors because I thought I might lose audio quality. I've hassled with the binding posts on speakers and amps for literally decades. I finally had enough and bought good speaker wire (audioquest G2 here at Crutchfield) and these Crutchfield banana connectors. INSTANT GAIN in audio quality! My wife walked into the family room and within 5 seconds said "wow that sounds good" I wish I would have done this many many years ago.

Thumbs Up - A review from a newbie

As a newbie I will give you my perspective. First of all you need to apply pressure to insert the plug into the receiver. Initially I thought the plug didn't work and I didn't want to press too hard because I didn't want to break anything. After calling Crutchfield I was told that I had to apply pressure. Once I did that it went into the receiver. Secondly make sure you unscrew the correct screw. I did the wrong one initially. The screw is so small that it took me forever to get it back in. When you do the correct screw you will see that there's a little opening for you to put the wire into the tube of the plug. There is no need to take the screw completely out. Once I got over the stumbling blocks, things went smoothly. It took me about 20 minutes to do the remaining plugs (12). Now that I know how to install the banana plugs, I will always use banana plugs going forward. It makes the insertion of the speaker wire so much easier! When I buy new speakers, I will make sure that they accept banana plugs. I would definitely recommend the use of banana plugs. It is well worth the cost which isn't that much.

My first jump into using Crutchfield Banana Plugs and I'll never go back. It makes it so much easier to plug and unplug speakers from my receiver, especially since I have difficult access to the back and no more worries of the "Protector" signall flashing on the receiver from bad speakers connections. I really like them and should have used them sooner.

These Plugs work great, especially at this price. I will say that they came with no instructions, and I did struggle for 5-7 minutes, (and finally 2 pairs of pliers) to figure out how to access the set screws and insert the speaker wire. It looks as though the silver body would unscrew into 2 pieces below the Crutchfield logo for access. NO.... Then, it looks like the gold plug part would unscrew from the silver casing. NO..... (not intuitively, anyway) In fact, the gold plug part is reverse threaded (IMO) and screws DOWN into, and eventually out of the silver casing. While this does allow assembly to the speaker wire and THEN the re-installation of the silver casing, my Engineering mind was thrown for a temporary loop!
