Need Quick Help with Power Amp/Speaker Connection

Like a good little soldier, I did a search first but found nothing.

So, would someone please explain the best way to connect my Yamaha power amp's output of "5 way binding posts" to the 1/4" phone jack inputs into my Avatar cab?

I'm eager to see if this thing fires up and runs!

Thanks!

 

Thanks!

"banana plug"

Now I know what to do.

 

Thanks again for the quick replies, but I think I have a problem.

Jogged over to my local music store for help before practice tonight (and trying out my new bass rig). They were most helpful.

They didn't have a pre-made, banana to 1/4" speaker cable, so they quickly made one with 16/2 speaker wire. I paid'em about $15. (Supply and demand and I was in a hurry)

But when I plugged the male banana plug into the female "five-way binding post" output jacks they didn't seem to fit tightly. I'm not comfortable with slop, if you know what I mean.

Can I just remove the banana plug, unscrew the caps and feed the bare wire through the post and tighten them?

Sure looks like it would make a better connection and be more secure.

Am I doin' something wrong here??

Thanks again.

 

Thanks for clearing that up!

"It won’t be as convienent as "just plugging in."

But I was considering a permanent connection and storing the speaker cable in the back of my SKB rack/case.

I like the idea of the bare wires being securely attached to the output posts.

Thanks again!
