WJSTN-018 Braided Wire Speaker Banana Plugs to 4mm Female Banana Jack Converter, Soft Whip Banana Plug Adapter Cable,4- Packs

Good quality. Works well. Nothing special.

I recently bought Elac Banana Plug Speaker Cables , my Receiver only has the pull , push speaker connectors.So I purchased these connectors and they work perfect , both ends are nice and snug , plus they look great and no stripping the wire ends. This is a must if you have a Receiver or Amp that does not have Banana Plug speaker jacks.

Update April 2023 - I ordered a couple more pairs and noticed the new ones have fixed the issues of the old ones. There is no longer a fatter part at the tip (pinched/pressed) and the gauge is slightly smaller. See the new picture. New on left, old ones on right. Be advised I did attempt to squish the fat tip on the older ones, so I don't have an example of 'out-of-the-box' version.Upping rating to 4 stars. If they are all now like the new ones, I'd give them 5 stars!These adapters are very well made. But the pin part is 12 AWG with a tip that is fatter and won't fit thru the 10 AWG hole on my strippers. Cutting the tip off helps but it may fray. It wouldn't fit into the speaker spring terminals of my 1970s Marantz, or other amps of that vintage. It also wouldn't fit into the spring clips on either of the speakers I have that use spring type connectors. In short, these adapters wouldn't work with anything I have that employs spring clip/terminals. I suspect the holes on the spring clips from any vintage audio gear will be too small.As a caution: the female banana part is well shielded. But I realized some my speaker wire banana plugs (the male part) are not shielded on the part you hold onto. If I could have gotten these adapters to fit into my Marantz, the gangling ends would touch each other. The spring clips on the Marantz are close together. This would mostly likely have shorted the speaker terminals together. Not good! So if you can use these, be sure to use insulated male banana plugs or some other method to keep our speaker wires from shorting together.

Great interface, used with really heavy speaker wires with factory connected banana plugs that will NOT fit into my JBL 4411 terminals (or any of those series that have old-school "push button" style speaker terminals). I noted after a weekend that the cables come out, and not wanting to "crimp" these had me adding a strip of gaffers tape (like duct tape, but not as messy).

In connecting my audio equipment, I needed these for the wire connection end. Good Product.

The wire at the end broke off

I have an AV cabinet which makes for a tight fit - so tight, in fact, that speaker cables terminating with banana plugs caused my receiver to stick out over the edge of the shelf, which was pretty unsightly.These little extension cables are just long enough to make out it of the hole in back of the shelf and connect to the bulkier banana plugs behind the back wall of the cabinet, so the problem is now solved, and at a very reasonable price.

Very handy for switching between Banana Plugs and wire, such as for working on equipment on the bench, HOWEVER I would not use these for audiophile listening as they are made from a cheap metal, not copper. Mine failed after 6 months of use, so I cut it apart to see how it was made.
