Review: Great Banana Plugs - This is the second time I've bought a set of these and they're great. Very well designed. I particularly like how it assembles/disassembles and the 2 screw-downs that grip the wire strands.
Review: Amazing quality for the price - Considering the reputation of Nakamichi and the fact these were less than $8 I was dubious about getting authentic parts. After using them the quality seems top-notch in every way with none of the aberrations typical of cheap imitations (poor quality uneven branding/silk screening, burrs, poor machining causing gritty, uneven screw connections and driver slots that aren't deep enough, uneven depth/width, misfitting parts, inconsistent sizing, etc). These look great, work great, fit great; it's a simple part and I think the price is reasonable but some brands are over 2x the cost and I can't see them being 2x the quality and some generic parts are the same cost and I can't see them matching this quality, I only found one about $1 cheaper from some no-name Chinese manufacturer and if these aren't genuine Japanese parts they're outsourced to a higher quality standard that is up to Nakamichi's audiophile quality reputation.

## Features

- ✅ Nakamichi Corporation Ltd. founded in 1948 by Mr. Etsuro Nakamichi, is a Japanese consumer electronics brand that originated in Japan and gained popularity from 1970s onwards from producing high quality audio cassette decks to design-oriented home cinema audio systems, speakers, hi-fi systems, sound bars and automotive stereo products.
- ✅ Nakamichi banana plugs fit directly into your audio component binding posts seamlessly, saving you the hassle of screwing in or unscrewing speaker wire – especially when space is tight.
- ✅ This set of Excel Series - 24k Gold plated banana plug uses direct gold-plating technology so it does not tarnish or corrode over time. The entire core from the bottom up to the tip is made of copper for better sound optimisation.
- ✅ The gold colour looks dull because there is no underlying layer of shiny, distortion-causing nickel. So, all you get is clean and pristine audio quality to your speakers. With the colour coded sleeve, it helps identifying speaker wire's polarity in order for your speakers to produce the truest audio frequencies and sound wave from the source.
- ✅ Dual 2-set screws design will ensure the banana plug stays securely connected to the speaker wires. You may secure both set screws to the bare speaker wires for maximum contact or secure one set screw to the speaker wire's PVC jacket for elasticity strength.
- ✅ Nakamichi Excel Series banana plugs comes with 3-Year warranty and supports 12 AWG - 18 AWG speaker wires. This package comes with 4 Pcs (2-Pairs) of banana plugs.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Did these come with one extra set screw?**
A: No, the set screws are pre-installed and do not include extras.

**Q: Are these counterfeit?**
A: I have purchased these not once, but twice. There's nothing that would lead me to believe that these are counterfeit. They're banana plugs, you connect speaker wire to them, connect them to your speaker, done deal. They work great, and are continuing to work great for me and the stereo systems they're connected to. IF you need for further analysis of them to determine they're working capabilities, good luck in finding a lab to do that for you. OTHERWISE, just buy the plugs and try them out. You're not making a huge life-altering purchase, they're not that expensive.
