Plug Termination

At Future Shop, we understand the importance of high-quality termination for achieving the best audio performance from your speaker cables. That’s why we offer two exceptional options: the trusted QED AIRLOC banana and spade plugs and the Elite Reference Series banana and spade plugs, both designed to deliver seamless connectivity and exceptional sound quality.

 

QED AIRLOC Plugs: A Proven Standard for Hi-Fi Performance

The QED AIRLOC banana and spade plugs have long been regarded as a benchmark in speaker cable termination. Featuring a cold-weld (air-tight) design, these plugs eliminate the need for soldering, ensuring a clean, reliable connection between your cables and audio equipment. This method creates an airtight fusion between the cable and plug, minimising resistance, preventing oxidation, and maximising signal transfer for pristine sound quality.

QED’s banana plugs incorporate a high-quality design, with 24K gold plating to enhance conductivity and protect against corrosion. The spade plugs, while lacking an outer metal barrel, still deliver dependable performance and an excellent connection for a wide variety of speaker setups. For audiophiles seeking trusted reliability and strong performance, QED AIRLOC plugs remain an outstanding choice.

 

Elite Reference Series Plugs: Next-Level Audio Connectivity

Building on the success of the QED AIRLOC plugs, the Elite Reference Series banana and spade plugs take performance and durability to the next level. Also featuring a cold-weld design, these plugs ensure an airtight, solder-free bond that delivers maximum signal transfer and long-term reliability.

The Elite Reference plugs are engineered with additional advantages that make them stand out:

  1. AirTite Ferrule-Free Design - Unlike traditional plugs that use ferrules, the Elite Reference plugs opt for direct conductor-to-plug contact, removing any potential barriers to signal transfer. Featuring four different inlet sizes, these plugs are perfectly tailored to fit various cable gauges with a cold-weld, air-tight design, that eliminates soldering, reduces resistance, prevents oxidation, and enhances durability.
  2. Beryllium Copper Core with 24K Gold Plating - The banana plugs feature a beryllium copper core, known for its exceptional mechanical strength and conductivity. This material resists corrosion and retains its shape, maintaining a tight and reliable connection over time. The 24K gold plating ensures a smooth, high-quality signal path while adding durability for years of consistent performance.
  3. Dual Functionality - Designed as BFA and banana plug compatible the Elite Reference banana plugs provide greater versatility, making them suitable for a broader range of speaker terminals. This added functionality ensures compatibility with high-end Hi-Fi setups and equipment.
  4. Silver Core Spade Plugs with Metal Barrel Protection - The spade plugs in the Elite Reference Series incorporate a silver base plated with 24K gold, offering superior conductivity compared to many alternatives. Unlike other spade plugs, the Elite Reference spades also include a durable metal outer barrel, providing additional protection and a premium finish.
  5. The Elite Reference plugs are manufactured in Taiwan, a region renowned for its precision engineering and high-quality manufacturing standards. This ensures that every plug is built to exact specifications, offering exceptional consistency, reliability, and performance.

Both the QED AIRLOC and Elite Reference Series plugs are excellent choices for ensuring the best possible performance from your Hi-Fi system. While the QED AIRLOC plugs provide trusted reliability and high-quality connections, the Elite Reference Series plugs offer enhanced conductivity, ferrule-free direct contact, and added durability with their premium materials and design features.

If you’re looking for a cost-effective and proven solution, the QED AIRLOC plugs are a fantastic option. However, if you’re seeking the next step in performance, versatility, and build quality, the Elite Reference Series plugs are designed to meet the demands of audiophiles who want the best from their speaker cables.

 

A Professional Plug Termination Service

Whichever plug you choose, you can trust Future Shop to professionally terminate your cables to the highest standard. Our experienced engineers ensure that each connection is secure, precise, and optimised for maximum performance. Both the QED AIRLOC and Elite Reference plugs are terminated using our high-pressure cold-weld process, guaranteeing airtight connections and minimising signal loss.

With these expertly engineered plugs, you’ll enjoy superior sound quality, dependable connections, and peace of mind knowing your audio setup is performing at its best. Let Future Shop help you create the perfect Hi-Fi experience with our range of premium speaker cable termination options.

I ordered this cable on a Friday for next day delivery. Futureshop said they were short-staffed due to COVID but nevertheless they still managed to send out the cable on the same day. They only charged me the Royal Mail first class postage rate but still sent by DPD. It arrived on Saturday as I wanted very well wrapped.

I ordered some more cable a few days later and again, the service was excellent. I can definitely recommend Futureshop.

QED Performance Silver Micro. Simply the best cable in its class. Good service from Futureshop's staff. Can only be recommended.

But very long transport time, which is probably my own fault because I chose the cheapest mode of transport to Denmark.

The cables deliver an excellent performance for the price. I use it for 'non critical' speakers (surround back L/R, surround L/R and subwoofer high level input).

Also the termination with QED’s AIRLOC spade plugs was excellent executed.

Thin speaker cables can also sound good
13 Mar 2019
Verified Buyer
First impression of the cable is that it's thin

First thoughts was that it didn't have any bass and was bright sounding

Random access memories daft punk, not the best recording since the bass is distorting a bit, the cable plays bass and the highs are pleasant to listen to

Exodus Deluxe edition bob marley, good bass and still have some sharpness,sparkle to the highs (thats how its recorded) but not to much considering it's a new cable, most speaker cables gets slightly softer in the highs after a week or 2.

Born in the usa Bruce springsteen,for the record it is, it has an okay bass (not a bass heavy record) a slightly bright sounding record, a bit toughter than the rest in the highs at high levels.

The ragpickers dream mark knopfler pleasant highs, different league than the 3 first records, again still better bass than the thickness would indicate.

I wonder how big the difference is between the non silver micro and the silver micro version,if its worth the price difference buying the silver micro over the non silver micro.

I bought them with QED AirLock Banana plugs (2x4 meters), have a Denon RCD-M41DAB with Mission QX-2 on isoacoustics stands, rest of the cable's are Qed perfomance including usb cable an optical using tidal hifi

The cable sounds to me best with well recorded music as if it's a bit analytic or slightly bright on some records,music (mabye the silver makes a difference in the highs compared to the non silver cable, which it should do in the highs) bass better than the thickness indicates, nothing negative to say about the midrange, clear sound.

For the money a good cable, mabye someone on a budget should try the non sliver micro since it's about half the price.

12 Sep 2017
Verified Buyer
I use this to connect compact satellite surround speakers for my AV set up. It is reasonably priced and can be trusted for reasonable performance being that it is made by QED. Due to its colour and size it can be easily 'hidden' against a pale coloured wall if tacked up in the corners.

I don't know if other manufacturers make a similar sized cable in the same price bracket but this was bought to match my existing cable as part of adding front surround speakers.

Fu-tureshop mounted the Airloc plugs perfectly and the bare ends were stripped tidily as well. I did request if Futureshop could 'tin' the bare ends but this request was unfortunately ignored so I had to do this part myself. Cable was received in very quick time so overall pleased.

22 Feb 2017
Verified Buyer
I have recently purchased cable for my centre speaker of my 5.1 system using Quad speakers. The advice I received was second to none and made an amazing difference. The clarity, the top end, just amazing. So, now I am getting the lounge redecorated and new flooring I have decided to Again I got great advice from the tech guys in FutureShop replace and upgrade the rears as the cable runs through the underlay. No question of where to go.
which actually worked out a lot cheaper than I originally thought. The cables I bought were terminated at the amplifier ends and must have been sorted immediately the order was in as I received them in two days.
I couldn't wait until the work was done so replaced the cables straight away. Like a kid at Christmas!
Awesome. Wow. Again, the difference, this time between QED 49 strand and terminated QED micro cable was immense. The clarity and mid range gave a more of a full and discinct sound. Replacing the speaker cables is to me a better proposition than replacing the speakers or indeed, the amp. I feel like the system has been given a new lease of life and its enjoyable to listen to again.
Great service again from the guys at FutureShop. I will be back.

I was simply looking for a longer cable to replace my Chord Campana which is a bit too short for proper routing to my rear Atmos speakers Klipsch RP-140SA. With the Micro, my Klipsch Atmos really comes alive with better dispersion, detail and accuracy I never heard before. I really wasn't expecting this at all as the Micro has same gauge with Chord Campana and furthermore running a few meters longer. I was worried the gauge was too small for a run of 15m each and there might be loss of dB but Futureshop assure me this cable was specifically made for a longer run. I'm glad I listened to them. Great cable! Thanks Futureshop for the recommendation.

ENGLISH TRANLASTION: Considering the value of the product , the cable is very good. It is noteworthy that the only observation which must be taken into account is the cable stiffness, it is a cable with less flexibility than others in the same category (i.e. it is harder ).

Considerando o valor do produto, o cabo ?© muito bom. Ressalta-se que a unica observa?§?£o que deve ser levada em conta ?© a rigidez do cabo, trata-se de um cabo com flexibilidade menor do que os demais da mesma categoria (ou seja, ?© mais duro).

27 Apr 2008
Verified Buyer
I am not one to write reviews, but I feel I must write in about this product to warn those considering buying this product. It will make you believe the phrase "cheapest upgrade you can buy".

Years ago , I bought a little all-in-one Sony for the kitchen. Usual setup with usual supplied speaker cable. Whilst ordering from this site for interconnects and speaker cable for a home cinema I am building in the garden, I suddenly, for no reason, bought 5m of this stuff for the small Sony. When it arrived, I found the cable is deceptively thick, but I had luckily also bought pin plugs for both ends. (btw, I tried soldering these in and found it impossible. Probably my lack of soldering skills, though). Not a good bend radius either.

Once manipulated in, I turned the unit on. I can only describe it as being "blown away". For a start, the unit was pumping out an extra 3db (from where I know not), and the FM radio sounded like it was Sky delivered. The iPod sounded like a CD, the range somehow being increased with punchy bass and clear treble. Fantastic. Made my £100 Sony sound like my Denon in the sitting room. No kidding. I honestly thought my ears wouldnt notice, after the years spent in clubs, but I couldnt have been proved more wrong. My regret is that I found this cable when I was ordering for the cinema. There is no way I could (or would) spend this cash on 80m of this, but I will always know that I 'settled' instead of buying the QED Silver Micro.

If you have the green, log onto this site and buy some. You wont be disappointed.
