no, banana plugs put out tangent signal with their internal transformer. You'll need to buy some. you can usually get them on ebay for cheap.

Well, if you're really that into banana plugs you could go buy some and solder/crimp them onto the ends of the speaker wires.

Realistically, you can just twist the speaker wires together and put them in the terminals or you can splice on the wires into the other.

yes, twisting the wires together instead of banana plugs is pretty much standard practice. the other guy is just ****ing with you.

I will say that the banana plugs were kinda cool. It made things that much quicker. If your pay check is dependent upon the number of installs you do, every little thing helps.
