Recommendations for banana plugs

I will be re-terminating a pair of speaker cables that have spades on them right now (two of which have broken)with banana plugs on both ends. I am unsure which brand would provide the most secure connection/best sound. Was considering the Eichmans or the Nordost type but have little to no experience with either. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Sounds like Nordost is the way to go. However, spring metal or not, spades give better contact. Bananas are more convenient.

What about WBT?

WBT? Good question. My RCA's are WBT's. Great RCA's. How good are the bananas?

WBT makes several grades of each, spades, bananas and RCAs. The best are very good indeed and I would recommend them. I'm not saying the other brands mentioned aren't any good. What I am saying is that the WBTs are right up there and I don't think you would go wrong with them.

The LAT International locking banana plugs are great as well! I have them on all ends of my speaker cables. They never come loose.
