banana plugs...where to buy? (Canada)

[Erman_94]

i see futureshop has 2 pairs for about $30 and im thinking they must run cheaper than that...anyone know where i can find them cheaper that ships to canada?

also, is it like an hdmi cable in that it doesnt matter which ones your purchase? or is there differences that would make the connection (and sound) better?

thanks

Solid little plugs, no complaints.

thanks guys..

whats the difference between open=screw type and closed-screw type?

[aramis109]

Open feeds the wire in through the side and is "open" on both ends. Biggest plus is that they make a near right-angle which is nice on hiding cables on the speaker end.

Closed go in the end. I have the closed- they're very nice but I meant initially to purchase the open. Check out my gallery for a blurry pic of them.

monoprice.com is the way to go. i am fixing to buy some banana plugs from there within the next few days

[DavidAg02]

Yep... monoprice is definitely the way to go.

Monoprice.com. Fellow Canadian, don't buy from Futureshop, they rip your guts out with their stupid prices.
