Easy fix. Grab some packaged heatshrink from Jaycar and slide them over the connection between banana plug and the cable. Makes them idiot proof but also quite appealing. I think im weird. I really like the look of a professional looking cable.

You need four per channel cable run.

So that's 5 x 4 for a 5.1 setup (assuming your sub uses a stereo interconnect).

That's 20 x $2.00 = $40. That's if you get from Rockby. They were $3.00 or so from Jaycar?

I bought a crapload of the Jaycar ones yonks ago to take advantage of the discount (ie. pretty much the same; accepts two cables, lockdown and the ability to piggyback and colour coded).

And the price was about $50 if I recall correctly. I have lots and lots left over...

Yes and I do like it very neat - I would just use bare wire if I didn't and that's just the worst.

Jaycar prices

1+ $3.95*
10+ $3.45*
50+ $3.15*

so for 20 it will be $69
