Blue Jeans Cable Ten White Speaker Cable, with Welded Terminations (Single Cable - for one Speaker), Assembled in USA (6 Foot, Bananas to Bananas)

A Lame Attempt at Speaker Wire, POOR

Very well made and reasonably priced.

I love these.

Très bon rapport qualité/prix. Bonne construction et bons connecteurs. L’art de s’acheter de très bons câbles hp sans payer un prix d’or...

And good sound quality

Excellent quality. Great price. Made in the USA. You can spend more, but you wont get better cables.

Excellent cables - likely will get another pair for my other system!

I went to install it in an Onkyo A/V Receiver, its an TX-RZ940, a not too recent discontinued model. Great receiver by the way, but the pins dont fit in the speaker terminals. My intended usage was the surround speakers on my entertainment stand, to go from 5.0 a to 7.0 speaker setup. I watched a tube video and the work-around solution for this sort of problem seems to be to pry a plastic spacer out with a paper clip, a drill with a wood nail or a screwdriver, but those didnt seem to work. Since I dont want to break the round plastic terminals and try any further at installing these, it would appear my receiver only likes the the banana plugs with the long clips with the hole on the end. This cable has a solid pin on the end instead. Some speaker manufacturers have a plastic spacer you need to pull off, thats true of one brand I recently purchased but not true of my main set of speakers. The reason why I liked the cable in the first place was the welding process, and my handmade cables out of either 10 or 12 gauge dont have that level of sturdy in the build I did last year. Unfortunately I think the solution is to build my own cables out of surplus wire and keep these for an amp with push pin terminals. If there was a model with the banana pin I need, I would be able to give this cable a 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 star given the much heralded welding and locking mechanism, and feel of the cable as a whole.

I like that they weld the cable to the attached banana plugs. Should improve reliability. Good quality and flexible cable!

I have always wanted to upgrade my speaker cable to one complete with banana plugs. The locking aspect is the best part for previous plugs are hit and miss. Sound quality is hard to judge for just replaced my flooring. I jumped on these for good value for being 10 gauge and able to get 3 for my main channels. I will have these in my will!
