Should I take the inner black tubing out? Will that make for a better connection?

BEST ANSWER: That's there to retain the set screw while shipping. Remove it. It is a small piece of heat shrink. If you can use it as such, do so. If your conductor is too big, toss it.
I don't remember how big they were, but I tossed mine

Can you provide an exact length you should strip the speaker wire for use with these banana plugs?
New User U
on Jun 27, 2022
BEST ANSWER: I usually mark my wire at 1” and strip that much. More for uniformity than anything. It really depends on the gauge of the wire and how you twist the copper before you attach the banana plug. Hope that helps.

Did not and can’t really measure and cut to an exact length. As I recall stripped the wire about 1cm. Love the plugs though. Makes it easier for sure!

Will these fit 12AWG speaker wire?
New User U
on Aug 25, 2022
BEST ANSWER: Yes, it will easily fit 12 gauge wire. I used them to terminate 4 braid speaker cable, made of four individual 12 gauge wires. So it terminates with two 12 gauge wires into the banana plug.

Are the screws supposed to make contact with the naked copper wire or with the insulator? Is the copper wire supposed to go all the way into the narrow top part of the plug or just sit in the area where the screws are? Cheers
A shopper
on May 13, 2018
BEST ANSWER: The screws should contact the bare wire. Remove the protective insert to allow the contact. The wire should be at least long enough to make contact with both set screws. The wire does not need to go into the narrow top part of the plug.

‘ferromanganese tip’—what is the impact on conductivity of the ferromanganese tip? Manganese is not especially noted for its conductive properties.

Very happy
These are very well made and have a nice snug fit both to the bare wire and to the speaker connectors. I don't see them coming loose anytime soon!

Excellent speaker connectors
This is the second time I've purchased these bananas plugs. I'm very impressed by their quality and switched out a different brand's connectors for these. They fit securely and I think they're excellent overall.

Seems like a good plug to me
Nothing to compare to, first time using banana plugs, they are as I expected, the two set screws grab on securely and they worked well for my 4mm² speaker wires.
The only thing that would be a minor complaint for me is that I wish the black/red collar would hold on a little bit more tightly when screwed on, they come loose easily, not that it affects the function.

Well worth the money.
I got tired of the speaker wire pulling out of my cheap speaker connectors, so I ordered these. They have room for very thick wire and the two beefy set screws hold the speaker wire very firmly. They look great and provide a nice tight fit to my amp and speakers.
Be sure you have enough room behind your amp or receiver. These stick out about 1" - 1.5". If space is a problem, look at some angled connectors instead.
Overall these are well worth the money.

10 Pack Banana plugs
These seem to be good quality. had no trouble using 12 ga ofc wire. Don't care for the flat blade screws but perhaps that is all that will work in the limited space. Good quality and fair price. More expensive speaker wire is almost all for looks.

Very nice connectors. Bananas fit snugly. Used a regular screw driver to tighten them on the bare wire.
