Jeddie Posted July 12, 2017 Posted July 12, 2017 I need some help Gentlemen. Am going to upgrade to Canare 4s11 speaker cables. Was thinking of using my existing Banana Plugs (Non lock type) to terminate? See the picture of what mine looks like. My plugs have the screw on end with that little thing that sits inside and pushes down. There's a hole on the side that I measure as 5mm. Will this work? Are all Banana Plugs the same? If not, what do I need to look for to accommodate the 4 cores?
Ugly Posted July 12, 2017 Posted July 12, 2017 Yes they should work. Each plug only needs to accommodate 2 cores for the 4S11
Weka Posted July 13, 2017 Posted July 13, 2017 If you want to do the Canare cable justice, use solder connection banana plugs and heat shrink sleeve them. Bare wire connectors like you propose will allow the copper wire to oxidize and result in a degraded termination.
