Does these speakers need banana plugs ?

No. You can use regular speaker wire. Banana plugs are just more convenient and sound better.

No just naked cable, the speakers have a kind of spring things that you push down and insert the cable

I used banana plugs from speaker wire to receiver. I plugged wire directly to speaker.

They have screw down locks for the speaker wire but the end is also ready for a plug. I'm not sure the exact name of the plug I heard someone refer to it as a "banana plug". Remember that it's a single speaker and you need to buy two for a set. :)

No. These are speakers that need to be plugged into a stereo with speaker wire.

Attaching the wires is very simple, just get the right speaker wires strip the ends at the appropriate length and attach the banana plugs using the color codes (Red-to-red, Black-to-black). You can use your fingers to fasten wires to these banana plugs. Turn the tip anticlockwise for gap and clockwise to tight the wire.

there are banana jacks for the connections, but I would get the individual plugs not the paired plugs.

This adapter will not work with banana plugs. It is set up to work with up to six speakers (L, C, R, LS, CS, RS). I am using the adapter with 14 gauge wire with no issues.

Yes you can connect banana plugs into every speaker output of this receiver. . .

no, you can use banana plugs to the receiver or bare wires it's just that banana plugs are convenient to use. Rca cables are for inputs like Cd, TV, mp3 players... etc.

I imagine that it could depend on which banana plug you are using but I did not have this problem. Make sure you remove the black and red plugs and that all parts are secure and the connection holes are free from obstructions. My banana plugs do not fit all of the way in, only about 3/4 of the way, is this what you are experiencing? The spring expansion of the plug itself is all that keeps it in place, it does seem a little slipshod but I have never had any problems with sound quality or spontaneous disconnects even though they pull out, easily, with a light tug.

The speakers have a round plug that you turn to open and then you insert the speaker wire into the plug and tighten the plug to keep the speaker wire from coming out. I am not sureif the hole in the plug would allow banana plugs.

Yes, they will receive banana plugs. Great Speaker love them, awesome with the super 8 sub.

The subwoofer outputs use RCA style connectors, all other speaker outputs are screw/banana plug type. So you can insert bare speaker wire and screw it up tight or attach your wires to banana plugs and insert those. Banana plugs don't provide any extra contact or quality, so don't be fooled into buying expensive ones. I get great sound from a pack of 20 I bought for $10, and chose to do so only because it's easier to insert and remove them.

I have this speaker-amp combination. If the banana plugs fit, your speaker wire choice looks great.

Yes you can. There are binding posts on the rear of the unit which will accept the bare wires and if desired, banana plugs may be first connected to the bare wires and inserted in the binding posts instead. Enjoy.

Spades are a more secure alternative in the end connection but you have to be careful they don't touch. (My higher end speakers require them.) Bananas, while convenient 'plug 'n play', can loosen over time. (My other two pairs 'demand' them.) Alot of speakers have a set up that allows choice between screw or plug. Both are mainstays and neither are particularly 'pretty' are they? (Who cares!...don't see 'em anyway and both work well.)

They have the connectors that you press in and push the exposed copper into...you could probably push in a banana plug if you needed to and get a connection, but I don't. I use these in my smaller room set up and I have banana plugs for the receiver end of all the cables that I cut, but I didn't bother installing them for the speaker end.

its a 110v power supply so you will need an adapter. and yes you can use bare speaker wire or banana plugs, i am using it for bare wires.
