Product Description
Speaker wire is made from copper wire that can corrode very quickly, rapidly deteriorating the performance of your cables and the overall performance of your system. To avoid this, always terminate your speaker wire with connectors. The kind of connector you need varies with the kinds of connectors on the back of your amp/receiver and your speakers. In many cases, the connectors will mandate Banana type plugs, and that's where the QL GMT-H Package includes two pair (4 connectors)

 Should be about 25 cents December 25, 2005

Monster is a master at bamboozling gullible people into spending wads of money with no scientific-audible justification. Audio isn't a religion and these are not holy water. They don't work any better than cheap connectors, and they don't work any better than using the posts that come on the back of the receiver to attach your wires.
Just gold? Why not platinum, or astatine?
Women think that diamonds are the thing, men think it's high-priced wire with banana plugs. At least you get to look at the diamonds.

These work exactly as decribed. Just twist the stripped ends of your speaker wire, push through the connector, screw down the banana portion of the connector, et viola! nice gold plated banana connectors! no strain relief so tugging on the end result is not recommended but these are MUCH better than leaving the twisted bare copper ends to oxidize on your speaker posts.
Superb connectors for amplifier speaker connections January 19, 2007

These connectors are a SUPERB solution. The wire (whether thin gauge "zip wire" or thick Monster Cable wire) is splayed out in this connector and locked in securely via a screw in fastener. The banana tip then feeds into the amp's banana socket with a minimum of fuss and ensures a low-impedance connection. The plugs themselves are very rugged and make a solid, reliable contact. You shouldn't ever have to mess with them again.
If you have a 6.1 system, you need three packs of these for the amp-side connection. Placed on high quality speaker wire, these connectors are a permanent solution. But don't worry, if you upgrade your speaker wire later, these connectors come off in a jiffy. Worth the price!

People need to take the debate to the forums.
These connectors work as advertised. Can I hear a difference? I don't know but I can see a difference in the back of my receiver and the connections are tight.

Any good connection will work, hear the difference?? give me a break.
It comes down to ease of installing the connector to the wire, and the low profile of these banana plugs compared to all others.
These have a brilliant design, and considering they are from the official company of overpriced hype (Monster Cable), they are pretty darn inexpensive. I am in no way a Monster fan, but these are worth every penny.
