✅ 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 FanLock 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 FanLock 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.
✅ FanLock design ensures the banana plug stays securely connected to the speaker wires. Installation takes only seconds without the use of any screws, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing the sleeves are non-conductive.
✅ Nakamichi FanLock Excel Series banana plugs comes with 3-Year warranty and supports 10 AWG – 18 AWG speaker wires. This package comes with 16 Pcs (8-Pairs) of FanLock banana plugs.

Very nice RCA connectors
I recently rewired some of the connections in my entertainment center. I needed a bit more wire length between components. Prior to these RCA connects I was using a double screw connector which worked well but seemed to get loose during adjustments. Due to short wire length they also occasionally allowed the wiring to be pulled out of the connector. I decided to give these a try as they looked well made and also a bit shorter and smaller in overall size. While a bit harder to actually plug into the connections on my equipment, once seated correctly they seemed more secure. I also had a bit more space to work with size wise. You do have to be careful not to have too much excess bare wire when putting them together, but once you get the strip size correct they are pretty easy to work with. I think these will work well in my system. They are nice and heavy and appear well made.

Nakamichi vs Sewell and general uninformed impressions.
I needed a bunch of banana plugs, but I just got a receiver that uses spring type terminals, so I went with the Sewell Deadbolt Flex Pin Banana Plugs.The Nakamichis win, hands down. I do like the flex pin design. Itâs like an inch and a quarter of tightly braided gold thread. Possibly just textured. They feel better than bare wire.The build quality on the Nakamichi seems better. The sewells look very similar, but arenât as substantial. This is partially true for their weight, not that the Nakamichis are heavy, just heavier in the sewells. The Nakamichis also have little extra touches, like a washer on each plug.Iâm using 14 awg wire, so there is space between the inside of the connector and my speaker wire. Itâs a little goofy. I imagine I should be using the thickest awg I can. Iâm sure that will solve the problem and improve sound.I love how easy they are to install. I had trouble stripping a small enough notch at first. You only need to strip about a quarter to a half inch.One thing to keep in mind is that copper strand that short can be stiff. A piece broke the sling once. It wasnât a problem, just finger those copper tips lightly. Donât push down but pull away the strands. Itâs super easy.They sound right. Thereâs no problem I can attribute to them. The connections are good.

Solid build, easy to assemble, but socket retention isn’t great
I typically use Monoprice closed screw type banana plugs, but recently switched to using FosPower and GearIT dual set screw style plugs. The set screw style is the most forgiving when you start using lower gauge wire. The Monoprice plugs were just chewing up my fingers on the 12 awg wire.I decided to give these a shot because it’s a decent brand and the there’s a couple other plugs out there just like them (including an Amazon Basics plug). These are definitely worth their weight… The plugs are fairly heavy compared to all my others. They are also the easiest to assemble, didn’t chew up my fingers, and played nice with my 12 AWG wire.However, the problem came when I actually plugged them into the banana plug sockets. I would say about 80% of them stay fully engaged in the socket. The others wanted to pull out about 40-60% from the weight of the cable. While this is a bit less than ideal, the plug still makes solid contact. The reason the plug is able to pull out is the how long pin’s flared pieces are. I originally thought that would be good, but there’s just not enough spring action to make it pop back out after being inserted. I ended up using a small knife to pry them up a bit. This has helped, but the plugs still pull out slightly.

Great plug- easy to assemble
Simple to use. Just follow instructions with pictures. They are solid. The wire will stay when the plug is assembled correctly.Depending on the socket in the speaker or audio receiver, this plug may be a bid tough to connect. But that is more than ok.

They work great!
I ordered these to be able to use high quality 10 gauge speaker cable which was too big to fit the terminals on my receiver. They provide excellent contact for the wire and fit snug in the banana jacks in the receiver and speakers. I believe the new cable and plugs increased the clarity of my high-quality speakers.

High quality and easy to install.
I needed 16 pieces to hook up two pairs of speakers. These were high quality that were easy to install. I would buy them again for future installations.
