Re: Nakamichi banana plugs
Just keep in mind that banana plugs will not improve the electrical connection, despite common belief to the contrary. They are simply for convenience.
They flutter behind you, your possible pasts.

Re: Nakamichi banana plugs
The only performance benefit to using banana plugs is properly installed they can help to eliminate frayed wires from touching each other or the back of your receiver. But the same thing can be accomplished by twisting the exposed wires tightly and putting a little solder on it.
Otherwise, the only reason I use banana plugs is I switch gear around quite a bit and it makes it so much easier than using bare wire. Also, my front right speaker in my living room is smack-dab in the middle of my front door. Friends/family know to go to the side kitchen door. Others just have to wait a minute while I move the speaker out of the way. Guess you know where my priorities lye
