Our take
Anyone using banana plugs for speaker connections know the convenience it brings to the table, while maintaining a secure connection and protecting the bare wire, it also makes it easy to move or upgrade speakers/ receivers/ amps without much hassle. Here's a good quality banana plugs we think you'll like, Monoprice banana plugs - good quality, well made, provides good & secure connection.
Instructions: Strip wire about 3/4". Unscrew bottom piece of banana plug. Insert wire through bottom. End of wire will come out other end about 1/4". Spread and fan out wire over the end (it will be crimped tight when top of banana plug is screwed on). Important tip: Cut end of wire correct length, only need about 1/8 - 1/4", so that when bent over the plug bottom it does not fall on banana threads (makes screwing on very tough). Screw on the top of banana plug, tight. Make sure banana tip is also screwed on tight; yes, it also comes off, for no good reason (actually they seem to reuse body for pin-type plug). Done. Quicker than this makes it seem.
