> 3 daySeem like good quality cables. I had an issue with one of the barrel locks getting a strand of wire stuck in it. Was able to get out and now work fine.

> 3 dayexcellent Belden quality cable. Excellent build with sonic welding to fuse the banana plugs to the cable. True audiophile product for very little money compared to other audiophile products.

> 3 dayA lot of home theater guys I know swear by Blue Jeans cables. I decided to purchase one cable to try on my Klipsch RP-504C center channel speaker. Once I installed the speaker cable I immediately noticed a brighter, cleaner and slightly louder sound from these 6ft 10 awg banana plug cables. I went from a 6 ft 12 awg media bridge cable (still a decent cable) to these, and the difference is there. Now, the only thing that may sway people away from these cables is the locking function. Honestly, this was not a problem at all. Please be advised that when you hook these into the terminals on the back of the speaker, the banana plugs fit loosely inside. I would strongly recommend that when you are turning the silver base to tighten the cable up, to snugly push in each terminal as you do this so that you make strong contact. Once this was done, everything else was a breeze and the sound, and quality is there. I would highly recommend these cables to anyone that wants to improve their sound.

> 3 dayGood solidly built cables. I did have an issue with one of mine where some of the frayed wire got stuck in the barrel nut of the locking plug. Luckily it worked itself out.

> 3 dayThese offer a musically rich sound at a very reasonable price. If you want to skip the super expensive cables, then start with these. I tried other cables, some costing far more and these won. Then I tried the Kimber 12TC and they blew these out of the water, albeit at a rather different price point. If your system is > $3-5k then Id recommend the Kimbers.

Greater than one weekFinally a speaker cable that just does it job! Im are tired of audiophiles telling me that you need to spend thousands on cables. All hype and no substance!! I am currently using these cables to hook up at McIntosh 5300 and JBL 100s. Everything just sounds better compared to my Audioquest cables costing 4x more!! I will be purchasing more BJC products to replace my now inferior AQ cables. Buy and Try for yourself, There is nothing to lose with Amazons return policy.

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.
Ultrasonic-Welded Locking Bananas: a Blue Jeans Cable exclusive feature

|---|---|---|---|
The PlugThis 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 WelderThis 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 WeldHere"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" FeatureThe 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. |
