Comments about Impact Acoustics Decorative 4-pair Low Profile Banana Jack Insert - White:
This item looks great---4 sets of speaker connections in a decora-style module. Unit appears well made and easy to install. Spacing is a bit tight but that is to be expected.
Unfortunately, the sockets are about 1/8" too narrow to fit the standard banana plug pairs. If you have individual banana plugs, this will work fine, but if you have the pairs, this unit won't work for you. It LOOKS like it will, but it won't.

Comments about Impact Acoustics Decorative 4-pair Low Profile Banana Jack Insert - White:
This product met the need that I had for hooking up 4 speakers using banana plugs in a standard outlet - couldn't find it anywhere else. From that standpoint this product is excellent. Also seems to be well made.
Only point that isn't great about this product is that the connection from the speaker wire to the back of the insert is not very secure and I've had the wires slip out a couple times when I was hooking it up. I hope once it is all safely inside the wall they won't come out as it won't be moving around any more, but this area could be improved. Based on fitting 8 wires into this fairly small space, there may not be room for more elaborate connection option (it's basically just one small screw per wire that doesn't hold particularly well). I would still recommend and buy the product again, but I am prepared to have to take this back out again and reconnect a wire that comes loose over time as it seems likely.
Sound quality transfer seemed very good, so no issues with the performance of the product.
