Does the stereo wire plug into the back or do they need banana plugs?

Both. You may connect stereo wire plug or a banana plug on this speaker system. -Ely

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.

Other than the banana plugs which seems to be slightly loose when plugged in, what other connectors are suitable?

Short Answer: NopeLonger Answer: Banana plugs are more convenient after you put them on but not required. We've got some speakers in our sun room and carport that are wired to my receiver's location in our living room; no banana plugs on those. I connected them to same inputs as the two tower speakers in our living room that I put banana plugs on.

standard speaker inputs either just wire or banana plug, if you mean power/sound that is from the receiver. Speakers sounds very nice for the price.

Perhaps you are talking about 'BANANA plugs' which are made for regular two strand speaker wire (think lamp cord). The subs I've worked with all used the RCA plug to receive signals from the 'subwoofer-out' non-amplified port on the amplifier. If there is no sub port on amp, use the BANANA plugs or twist terminals in and out, to place subwoofer input from L&R; channels before the L&R; speakers. Either way Banana plugs are readily available. IF you are using outdoor type Public Address, concert sound stuff ( Peavey, etc.), then yes they all use 1/4" big plugs for rugged, easily repairable, simplicity.

Screw terminals are used, just use regular audio wire, then get a banana plug wall outlet

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.

Bare speaker wire, although I never attempted to use banana plugs on this but I believe the holes are too small.

those do not accept banana plugs. just bare wire then you tighten down the binding posts

I am having trouble figuring out how to use banana plugs with these speakers. I removed the red and black caps, but as other have said the banana plugs barely go inside the holes.

Nope, no plugs just the old school wires. They are still awesome for the money.

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

they connect with banana plugs. they are not self powered. they are fairly large probably like a foot tall half a foot wide and half a foot in depth. sound great tho!

They have nice screw-down style connectors where you stick the wire in the connector, then screw it down tight, not the cheap spring loaded red/black. I think they accept the banana style plugs, also.

Yes, you can use banana plugs to connect to these speakers. This is how I have wired up my system.
