Audioquest Rocket 33, anyone knows how to take off the banana plug end?


Hello all! I have a 10ft audioquest rocket 33, the original banana plug is sorta darkish, i gotta a hold of Banana 500 series that i’d like to swap it with. I do not see any screws on the original banana plug, anyone knows how to remove that end in a safe way? 
Also, will it be ok if i put gold banana 500 on the amp end, and silver banana 500 on the speaker end? Thanks

I am not sure but i think there are 2 version rocket 33 that has banana plug, mine is not the one as seen on the video, the hard plastic that holds the silver pin does not have any type of hole nor screws that are visible, if you just google rocket 33 images, you will see both version.

I’ll try that polishing technic with “nevr-dull” you mentioned.

O no! thats not encouraging!! I will give it a shot anyhow after figuring out how to take my current banana plug off and see what happened.
Problem solved! I called audioquest, they said that only the 10ft Rocket 33 banana plug cant be swapped, only that model, what a luck lol! Thanks everyone.

Interesting post.  I can't help but  I do have Rocket 33's running to my B&W 804s and they made a big difference from a no name, cheap brand that they replaced.

Cables do matter!

Good luck.
