What is this speaker cable connection?

Hello, 

I was given these speaker cable and told these were really expensive. But when look at the connection, it doesn't make any sense to me. I have used banana plugs before. But I have no idea how to connect these with my amplifier. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Both of those amps have binding posts that will accept bananas, pins, bare wire and spade lugs like you have. Just unscrew the plastic red or black knob and insert the lug into the area that is exposed when unscrewing the post. Then tighten it back up, as tight as you can get with your fingers or gently give it a nudge with a pair of pliers. You do not want them to move back & forth. Make sure the + & - wires are not touching each other.
Yes but the most badly designed worst engineered spades I have ever seen. I mean that picture, its like a car wreck. You don't want to look, but you do, and then you just can't stop. What a mess. We should have a contest, who can spot the most flaws in this most flawed design?

I agree with you about the ludicrous spade.   It is way too long and straight and I doubt it would fit any of the gear I own.    My speaker posts are recessed and I would have to put my amp on a 6 inch riser to give it clearance.

Even if It did fit I wouldn't use them.  With the long torque arm  you run a big risk of shorting if a cable gets bumped.
