    I had to return the 20 ft. BJ 10 white cable I originally ordered due to component placement change but its the same 10 gauge Belden wire in use. The locking banana plugs are topnotch quality, they stay in place when tightened to get a solid connection to speaker and/or amplifier. I do not believe sound will be any better using other high priced speaker cable.

    If you want a high-quality speaker cable without any of the mumbo-jumbo of some cable manufacturers, this is your cable. It uses quality Belden cable with great locking banana plugs that are welded on. Those banana plugs and the way they are connected to the cable set this cable apart from the other cables at this price point. (I once worked for a company owned by Belden and I can say that they know cable!)

    I replaced my 15+ year old Linn speaker cable with these and they are simply fantastic. Build quality is high and the locking banana plugs are effective and appreciated. The sound quality is excellent - open, no coloration and transparent. Highly recommended, they are a fantastic value. My equipment is NAD M10 driving PSB Synchrony One Tower loudspeaker. Music source is Qobuz high resolution files streamed via Roon.

    Very nice quality speaker cables. I have used a lot of different speaker cables over the years from fairly “high end” to generic and the Blue Jean speaker cables are fantastic. I really like the locking banana plugs on these to keep them snug and tightly connected. I have Emotiva XPA monoblocks that have the positive and negative speaker terminals about one foot apart from each other. I had to do a slight modification to the speaker cables by pulling up the cable end jacket (more like a pair of pants) and then carefully cut the jacket surrounding the two wires back about seven inches. The “pants” part slipped right back over the main cable jacket and all was good to go. These cables are no nonsense neutral cables so they do not act as tone controls to alter the sound from my speakers. I am aware of the whole psycho acoustical effect experienced by audiophiles who claim that adding a certain cable, power cord or interconnect cable makes their rig sound better. But, the Blue Jean speaker cables did make a difference over the generic 16 gauge speaker wires I was using. Is it because the Blue Jeans are 10 gauge or the cold weld connections? I don’t know but I can say I would highly recommend these to any audiophile who wants a great speaker cable without spending a fortune.

    These are well built and I like that they are white. I have a bunch of sub cables from them as well and work and sound great!

    Finally, the answer to high quality and fair pricing. And made in America! Not just great quality cable but the locking banana connectors put all others on the trailer. Any questions you have- just call or email and the folks at BJC will help you, no computers answering the phone. If there were 10 star ratings this is one of those rare companies that would deserve it.

BJC Speaker Cable, made with our Ten White cable stock and Welded Locking Banana Plugs

At Blue Jeans Cable, we were never happy with the conventional methods of attaching speaker cable to banana plugs. Setscrews are fine, but lack pull strength; compression connections are never as strong as they look like they"re going to be; and solder, on large high-mass connectors, is slow going and tends to cause a lot of insulation meltback. Our solution: ultrasonic welding. Our Sonobond Ultrasonic Welder (made in West Chester, PA) welds the copper wire to the brass banana plug body without the excessive heat associated with conventional welding, fusing copper to brass in a tight, strong, low-resistance, reliable connection.

Our Ten White speaker cable stock is a 10 AWG cable with each conductor made up of 65 strands of bare copper for high flexibility.

The Plug

This is our locking banana plug, disassembled. Notice anything? There"s no attachment mechanism for the wire -- no set screws, no clamps, nothing but a channel for the wire to sit in.

The Welder

This is one of our Sonobond Ultrasonic Welders, in our Seattle shop. Unlike heat-based methods of welding, it drives a large amount of ultrasonic vibration into the junction between the wire and the plug, fusing them together.

The Weld

Here"s a plug body after welding. The surface structure of the wire breaks down during welding, allowing dissimilar metals to fuse. The resulting weld has extremely low contact resistance and high pull strength.

The "Locking" Feature

The outer collar of the banana plug is threaded. It should inserted into the binding post with the collar "backed off" from the plug end (top image). When the plug is in the binding post, simply turn the locking collar clockwise (bottom image) and it pushes a central pin forward, expanding the splines for a firm engagement in the post.
