I'm using these too as you say good quality and fit to speaker cables nice and securely, also a nice tight fit into my amp and speakers. Good value for the price.

Never heard of Nakamichi? Seriously? Oh dear. I must be getting very old :-( Yet presumably I'm only six years older than you...

It's not the same Nakimichi. Apparentley THE Nakamichi have strenously denied that the banana plugs, bearing the same name, have anything to do with them. I use Chord plugs, a bit dearer but a nice tight fit.

Have also heard that some are fake nakamichi plugs, not shure if they are good (the ones i have ordered), i have ordered 8 pair of W&M Audio BFA BS-516, (need 4 pairs for my zensor 1, the ones i have and use dont fit tightly) they are cheap, looks like they are gold plated (might be fake because of the price) are with bfa plugs and to screws.

Anybody who know if W&M Audio has a website?

I use standard red and black sleeved banana plugs (Milty?) that are soldered on to my cables.

They cost about a tenner for eight...

(They look the same and cost the same as mine did.)

That's weird they even use the same company logo.
