Hi Tom,
everything else ist more expensive than Chinese stuff, but quality ......
I have to order parts at Mouser, so I will get 10 pcs.
This will take 3 or 4 weeks, so stay tunes, I will report.
With best regards
Gerhard

Hi Gerhard,
?
Yes - these look good but the price is much higher than what I paid.
As I no longer work, modifying the cheap Chinese banana plugs was
viable. If you still work and are time limited then the Pomona plugs
may be the better option. It may be best to get a small number first
to try before committing to a larger order.
?
Best regards
Tom

Hi Gerhard,
?
I used the following banana plugs:

?
Please note that only about 30% of the plugs I received were a
good fit. The rest I had to modify.
?
I had to remove the barrel shaped contact spring and compress it
carefully to open it up to make good contact with the sockets.
I also soldered the barrel shaped contact spring onto the
plug body. It is a lot of work to make the patch cables with plugs
which don't quite fit, but with the modification the result is now
neat and usable.
?
I couldn't find anything else with a better fit. The original 0.1"
taper pins are "unobtainium".
Regards
Tom
