Anyone know if these have banana plug connections?

Mine have very heavy-duty spring loaded push plugs. Do not let the low price-point on these speakers fool you, these are serious speakers...

The pair I got do not have banana plugs. They have spring connectors. There is probably enough room there to use them, but that is probably not something you want to do.

Yes, it does need banana plugs. I don't remember that it came with them. I recycled mine from a previous amp.

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.

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

Bananas also work for connecting speaker wires to the 551R. There is a red or black plastic plug in the "banana hole" you'll need to pot out to make room, but that's no big deal. (In Europe, some AC plugs resemble bananas, hence the regulation that requires the plugs.) I hope this is helpful. Dick from Spearit Sound

Buy Banana plug if you want them: http://www.amazon.com/Soundsoul-Connector-Banana-Plugs-Screw/dp/B0093F4ROI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1391610542&sr=8-1&keywords=banana+plug Or just use your wires as they are... the binding posts will also accept bare wire.

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.

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

The speakers are designed to accept pin plugs, not the thicker banana plugs. Monoprice sells the pin plugs and they work great.

Yes, but I wouldn't buy them again. I found much better ones locally. These are far superior because instead of the screw clamping the wire, as the Sewell Pros do, these ones clamp the wire with a piston. Much more positive, heavier, stronger, better in every way. http://www.rpelectronics.com/370-322-10-banana-plugs-heavy-duty-8awg-gold-red-band-pkg-10.html

They are pins and not banana plugs. I google the image of the back of one of your speakers and they look like they take whats called a banana plug. Often times, the plugs that banana plugs plug into can be unscrewed revealing a hole where you can snake in a speaker wire then tighten the screw on the terminal for it to hold in place. I cannot tell if this is the case with your speaker terminals. Nonetheless, your question is with regards to these terminators. If your terminals are in fact banana plug terminals, then use banana plugs instead. If not, I WOULD NOT use these as terminators for your speaker wire. As you can see, there is no insulation around these and if they touch, it will short out the speaker and can cause damage to your receiver or amplifier. Note also that the pins on these appear as though they can be bent. That is not the case in my experience. Not sure what material its made from but it is certainly not malleable. Once you bend it, it will snap off. So all in all, DO NOT USE THESE.

Banana plugs are not necessary for the main speaker connections, but you can use them if you have them. You can use just straight speaker wire. The only exception is the subwoofer. Only for that speaker will you need an audio pin cable.

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

Mini banana plug connectors fit. They move a little though. Not overly tight fitting.

Nope it does not take banana plugs just straight wire. The sound is very good despite this. Used with m&k; surrounds and Boston acoustics sub. Speakers driven by pioneer elite receiver.

Yes, I bought this with a set of banana plug tips that screw onto the ends of your wires. They work great and I highly recommend them.

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.
