Suggest Banana Plugs

[abhishekdas]

I got Marantz NR1710, Dali Oberon 5, Dali Oberon Vokal and Dali Alteco C1. I need good quality Banana Plugs for my setup (both ends).

Can you suggest some good gold plated Banana Plugs which can fit perfectly to my AVR and speakers? Direct links to any of the online shops will be appreciated.

If you want to go insane then there is no limit to which plugs you get. However upto sane levels, Amazon basics are quite good.

Monoprice plugs available on amazon.in are quite good

Having used monoprice and nakamichi, i prefer nakamichi because of a more secured fit. Monoprice build quality is good, but the connection is not secured.

But overall, both are equally good.

I heard that they don't fit properly to every systems and tend to run loose. Saw few bad reviews on Amazon.com and Amazon.in

Nakamichi is quite good. Buy it from Aliexpress. Much cheaper than from Amazon and I believe is of better quality too.

I see lot of vendors for Nakamichi on Aliexpress, can you please give any particular link, I'm also looking for those. Thanks.

I can second the Amazon basics plugs. Using them for years and no problems whatsoever

Sewell direct deadbolt and direct silverback are very good in performance. Little expensive but great build quality and very firm fit. Doesn't add anything from self.

You can consider MX Gold Plated Banana Plugs.
Better quality than Nakamichi

Dual screw type which is better than single screw

If anyone dealing with MX locally, you may get at better price than the MX website given above

Nakamachi which l got turns sound little bright and monoprice on warmer side when compared to same bare speaker wire connection.

I heard gold plated banana plugs in Pune meet and they were good with sound.I guess those were Rs.50 .

I use media bridge gold plated banana plugs. Built quality is top notch and they fit perfectly

 

[vikas pathak]

Dac banana plugs are also very good,reliable & easy to use. Available at hifimart.

Are you planning to frequently move your gear around? If not why not bare wire connections? Personally I would get Media Bridge / Sewell (very short lengths - ideal for cramped shelf space). Too many Nakamichi fakes around. MX is also good. As they say 'whatever floats your boat". I had bare wire connections on my Dali & Yamaha 5.1 setup.

Edit: As a minimum ensure the BP specs mention 4mm, which is pretty much the standard size for mass-market products.

The only gripe I have with Nakamichi plugs is that the opening at the back is too big. Thinner wires tend to look very bad in that gap. Other plugs have a tapered finish at the back which kind of hugs the wire and gives an integral look.

I have been using it too..
I feel the same. Noticeable gap between wires and plugs.

Try using heat shrinks to cover up. Will prevent oxidation too of the wire.
