What size banana plug does the amp accept?

I use standard 1/4 inch banana plugs. I picked up several packs from Amazon and they work on all my audio equipment. If necessary, contact the people at Emotiva. I have spoken with them on several occasions and have found them to be most helpful and friendly. Enjoy your unit.

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

This power supply uses the standard old banana plug that has been around for 80 years. I do not believe that either of the miniature plugs will work.

I have not really thought about it, but after looking at the speaking earlier today it appears that banana plugs can be used. The chamber is hollow and a banana plug should fit perfectly.

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.

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

Hello!No the female end does not accept an RCA plug. It will accept another dual banana plug. Hope this helps.

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.

Regular speaker cables will fit. It will accept a banana plug, but the ones I have are too long and would prevent the speaker from hanging on the wall properly.

I just sent you an answer -- the cable size this amp useds is 1/4" -- I should have looked this up. Sorry. Dan T.

Inputs are XLR, 1/4 inch and RCA. The amp requires the 'pro' +4db level to drive it correctly. There have been rumors that the RCA plugs are the 'consumer' -10 db, but that is not the case. I'm not sure if the 1/4 inch inputs are balanced (TRS) or unbalanced (TS) plugs. I've been running mine with TS cables and it works fine. The speaker outputs are Speakon and binding posts. There are plastic plugs in the binding posts that can be removed for use with banana plugs. They are tight, but you can get them out. Gently screwing a drywall screw into them and then pulling with a pliers works well. Inputs are XLR, 1/4 inch and RCA. The amp requires the 'pro' +4db level to drive it correctly.

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.

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

It's not worth contacting the manufacturer as it's pretty much an industry standard. A quick google search will find instructions on how to install. For instance: http://sewelldirect.com/articles/HTG-Banana-Plugs.aspxThere is even a youtube video to show you the two different ways to install.

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.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by a 150 milli amp plug, but I'll give it a shot. This physically fits most standard guitar/bass stomp boxes. It is quite capable of supplying more than 150 milli amps of current. If your device requires a non-standard plug size, you will have to find an adapter to make it fit properly.
