Re: Does BFA plug fit tightly into binding post or receiver?

IME, the BFA design is much better mechanically and sonically than a leaf type banana. The design is essentially a one piece, split hollow pin connector with a slight splay at the split in order to create a snug fit. A leaf type banana plug might be fine to use with laboratory and other test equipment, but for audio use the BFA plug is the way to go when spades are not selected as an option, IMO. I suggest direct gold plated or direct silver plated (a nonreflective finish -- not shiny) beryllium copper BFA plugs such as the AudioQuest CF-BFA connectors.
