A few revievs mention that these plugs to NOT fit Sony receivers? Any opinions ...

I've seen variations in fit with different brands of banana plugs. Stands to reason there would be variations in amplifiers too. For what it's worth, they're great plugs for my Emotiva amp.

You did not specify the model of your Sony receiver; nevertheless I have the old Sony STR DG820 Receiver and fits perfectly.

I currently have them plugged into the Sony STR-DE697 no problems. I was looking to upgrade to Onkyo or Yamaha, but the new Sony network receivers look great at the price.

Getting ready to purchase some for my Yamaha 673. It's not the banana plug variation as much as the socket variation. Older binding posts did not have a deep socket so the plug did not seat as deeply as it should. So, except as noted, in years of laboratory experience, I have never found a banana plug that didn't fit a socket properly when new. After a time, the leaves may lose some spring and need 'tuning'. Too much tuning and they will work-harden and break.

They do not fit the older Sony receiver/amp. I have a STR-DE752. If you cut the tip off the banana clip so you can get the spring off, they will go in very tightly.

If the Sony uses banana plugs, there is no reason why these shouldn't fit. All banana plugs are universal size and shape. They would not fit 1/8", 1/4", RCA, or other audio plugs. If you don't know what kind of plug adapter your receiver uses, check the manual

I am very sorry I cannot help you there. Might be worth calling Sony Customer advice and check with them.Bob Brown.

Even though it's otherwise a normal 3.5mm stereo plug the plug body is extremely narrow so standard cables won't fit into the recess. I think you'll have to call Sony and get it by special order.

I didn't have a Sony but I just replaced my marine radio with this one and it worked out fine. They may all be a standard size.Good luck.

Chris, I was told by an Alpine wholesaler that repaired my DVD player that they would work with any unit, but I'll tell you what, I have a Clarion and another unit that I can't recall the brand. I will test them on those two players and let you know. The headphones are on the road right now but will be in the shop on Tuesday. If you want me to test them for you, send me an email at jeffjones18@yahoo.com on Tuesday 2/11, to remind me and I will test them and let you know for sure!

Its a very tight fit. Most thick plugs will not go in. These receivers are great, but too big and the second remote is just a duplicate.

Yes this is a problem I am having with my new system as well, same make and model. I ordered a replacement the other day. Seems to be a problem with the receiver, I wrote about it in my review.

Amazon is saying they do when I enter in your model of headphone these come up as the replacements but I can't be sure. Based on pictures of this model I would say no because the shape looks different than a Sony V6. You could always buy them and if they don't fit send them back.

I use them with all my mp2 players. I was told you have to make sure the plug sizes match. Apparently there are two different sizes. This one is 0.35mm gold plated.

My particular Sony sound bar did not fit on this adapter, the mounting holes were too far apart, you should either measure the mounting holes on your sound bar or look in the manual to determine whether or not the holes are further apart than this adapter can handle.

I have a 2" receiver & it works fine with that. I did order some adaptors for my set up, but can't remember for sure if they have a 1&1/4" adaptor, but I think they do. I would suggest you go to their website & see if they have what you need.

Do not know, but I've heard that they fit other types. On the package, however, it states that they are only for Sony earbuds with colored inner attachment pieces.

I don't think it's the receivers. It's the connector at the back of the base station and it's plug in. This happens to me all the time. There doesn't seem to be any way to repair this problem other than the purchase of a new set - evidently, you can't purchase just the base station. I even changed my 'tuner' but it didn't help

Probably because they are just meant to be a cross referenced replacement. If you know your stock plug, you find the cross-referenced replacement and it will fit.

Don't know. I published a new picture of the old and new antennas which you an compare to your Sony. Hope this helps.

It is indeed a custom / proprietary plug that goes into the headphone end of the cable, not your standard 3.5mm. from close examination, it seems that the plug is slightly longer, and maybe reaches a clip slightly further inside the jack than a normal 3.5mm plug. I am also disappointed by this, but sony doesn't sell their own cables on the side to make money either, so I don't know what's up. anyway, if you want more cables you'll need to call sony's customer support for them

No the Silverback Speaker cables won't work because they have the roound-ish pens on the end as you can see in the picture. Personally if you have a receiver like that, I would just use some basic 16 gauge cables. I did see another individual say you can take the jackets off the end, they do unscrew & this should be possible but again with [your] Sony receiver I would get basic 16 gauge cables for now.
