About this item:

  • ✅ Nakamichi Corporation Ltd. founded in 1948 by Mr. Etsuro Nakamichi, is a Japanese consumer electronics brand that originated in Japan and gained popularity from 1970s onwards from producing high quality audio cassette decks to design-oriented home cinema audio systems, speakers, hi-fi systems, sound bars and automotive stereo products.
  • ✅ Nakamichi banana plugs fit directly into your audio component binding posts seamlessly, saving you the hassle of screwing in or unscrewing speaker wire – especially when space is tight.
  • ✅ This set of Excel Series - 24k Gold plated banana plug uses direct gold-plating technology so it does not tarnish or corrode over time. The entire core from the bottom up to the tip is made of copper for better sound optimisation.
  • ✅ The gold colour looks dull because there is no underlying layer of shiny, distortion-causing nickel. So, all you get is clean and pristine audio quality to your speakers. With the colour coded sleeve, it helps identifying speaker wire's polarity in order for your speakers to produce the truest audio frequencies and sound wave from the source.
  • ✅ Dual 2-set screws design will ensure the banana plug stays securely connected to the speaker wires. You may secure both set screws to the bare speaker wires for maximum contact or secure one set screw to the speaker wire's PVC jacket for elasticity strength.
  • ✅ Nakamichi Excel Series banana plugs comes with 3-Year warranty and supports 12 AWG - 18 AWG speaker wires. This package comes with 10 Pcs (5-Pairs) of banana plugs.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good quality functional banana plug

    M.J.B. · 6 April 2024

    I've bought 26 pairs of these over the past few months (so 52 plugs in total) for my home cinema and garden sound systems. Overall I'm very happy with the quality and sound. If you are a true Hi-Fi connoisseur you may prefer platinum plugs but if you are more in function, value and quality these will do just fine.Across all 52 plugs there were no defects and although I purchased then in 3 different orders (11 speakers with plugs at both ends require 22 plugs - who knew?), the quality has been consistent throughout.If you are on the fence about buying banana plugs because you think that connecting bare wires to binding posts does the same job, just order some plugs. Even two pairs to get you started. The second you want to move or test something you'll be thankful you made the decision, let alone swap out your AV receiver. Thank me later.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Grub screws break easily

    Difficult to get the outer sleeve on unless the grub screw is flush with the barrel, but the grub screws break too easily. I’ll try a different brand next time…

    These plugs were found to be of the highest quality that I was hoping for.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty much a perfect solution for a generalist

    W.H. · 19 October 2024

    I’m not an expert in audio connections and I’m sure there are plenty of very expensive and incredible alternatives to these but for anything less than a purpose built listening room, I’m confident that such connectors will make a significant impact – not on the audio quality but on the admin of plugging cables in compared with the tedium and dexterity limit testing "direct" approach.With regards to this specific product I found a perfect match of form and function.I like the dual screws used to hole the wire in place, and found the screw-on cover to be satisfying to attach.The design, from an aesthetic perspective, also pleased me, with a pleasing visual identity applied tastefully to the cover.They include spare screws and a set of clear instructions.I will buy more.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Does just what I want

    I.K.W. · 3 November 2023

    Nakamichi is a well-known name in the world of upmarket HiFi. I wanted these plugs to terminate the speaker cables for my TV surround system. Among this class of screw-in banana plugs they are priced about in the middle. As you need four plugs per speaker the cost can quickly add up in a modern 7.1 system. One can of course just screw down the bare wires onto the amp or speaker terminals but my experience has been that these connections work loose over time and their general inaccessibility meant that I wanted something that would remain tight over time without needing re-tightening. I used QED 79 strand cable - no need for anything more fancy for the surround sound speakers - which I think is 14 AWG and was a perfect fit. Two points I would make in response to complaints by other reviewers. 1) There is not much clearance between the cover and the heads of the screws on the body of the plug that secure the cable - certainly not if the insulation is left on the cable where the rearmost screw is located. As a consequence the screw head will protrude and foul the cover and prevent it locating properly. So you have to strip the cable back far enough to enable both screws to locate onto bare wire - it all seems to be held in place perfectly securely. 2) Some have complained that the banana plug is a very tight fit in some sockets. I treat the socket and the plug with Servisol beforehand which acts both as a cleaner and a lubricant and sorts out the problem.

    Tad expensive for what they are but good quality

    5.0 out of 5 stars Top Banana

    G.@.M.P. · 28 October 2024

    A good looking functional design. The outer sleeve screws on from the banana plug side so you don't have to slide the wire through it before attaching the wire to the plug. They also come with a spare grub screw. But what really impressed me was that a spare set of shorter grub screws for use with thicker AWG 10 wire is included.Recommended.

    Bien hechecitos

    M. · 22 August 2023

    Dudo que sean fabricados por la Nakamichi original (la marca legendaria de los 80's) pero cumplen su función al 100% y se sienten bien hechecitos. Facilísimos de instalar. En cuanto al sonido... bueno no entro en discusiones de audiófilos alucinantes, pero se oyen igualito que con el cable conectado directo al poste.

    Perfect

    High quality product and easy to install. Nice weight to them too and the color coordinate helps quickly determine positive from negative. Knurled ends make them easy to grip.Recommend!
