Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)i made the mistake of using an inflexible wire designed for building installations instead of buying a car audio wire. for the same thickness ( zero gauge ) i got it from home depot for half as much as rockford fosgate wire would have cost me. big mistake.
the strands on the home depot wire are about 2 - 3 millimeter thick and will not work with this compression connector. we were able to force it and get it to work anyway but it wasn't pretty. with a normal car audio cable that uses thin stranding there should not be any problem.
what i don't like about this connector is that the monster logo hangs by a thread - it will most likely fall off. the connector itself is mostly solid except for the ring that tightens the cable but rockford fosgate connectors are no thicker in that part (plus they're discontinued).
the really nice touch is that you can use a wrench to tighten it because its square in shape. given our problem with the thick strands we were only able to make it to work using the wrench so thats a big plus.
there aren't many compression style connectors on the market and this one is the best. compression connectors grip in a way that makes it pretty much impossible to pull the cable out unlike regular connectors from which the cable sometimes falls out just from vibration. i would have bought rockford fosgate compression connectors if they wasn't discontinued but right now i think this is the best you can do for a superior power connection if you are running some massive amplifiers.
i give it only 4 stars because the discontinued rockford was platinum plated and sold for less than this connector which is just chrome. also because the logo is so loose you can just slide your fingernail under it and pull it off. never the less as i said right now this is the best you can get.
