"Very heavy feeling. I love that they have a removable insert in the cable end if you need a bigger cable entrance. Techflex will slide into the connector itself making termination look really professional"

excellent locking banabba
"this is the most functional and attractive product of this type on the market. I do wish that a larger version could be made to accept cables with many large conductors. I want to retrofit an existing cable with 6 14 guage conductors per channel. Other than this, it is a much better termination than spades. Highly recommended."
Best Banana Plugs
"Very impressed by these banana plugs. Built well, and both the connection it makes to the wire and the locking connection to the banana jack seem really solid. If you're going with banana plugs - this is it. FYI - when screwing down the cable to the plug, the top/tip screw is for stripped bare wire, the bottom/neck screw is for screwing down over still-insulated cable. Where my equipment will allow, I think I'd prefer pure copper spades that crimp on. Copper is at least 4x as conductive that brass, and a good crimp is better than one little screw. I use a wrench to tighten down the terminal to the spade - needs to be really tight."
