can you use banana plugs into the back of the receiver?

I don't see that capability on mine. Here is a link that will take you to the owners manual and marketing specs for this amp. I always read these things before I buy electronics, when available. Hope this helps.http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=STRDH540&template;_id=1&region;_id=1&tab;=manuals#/manualsTab

Yes it accepts banana plugs. Regular Speaker wire without banana plugs will work, but I think bananas are a lot more convenient and provide a more solid connection. BTW, this is an absolutely phenomenal amp for the money.

You sure can. That's what I'm using and they work great. It takes a little extra time initially to connect the wires to the banana plugs, but after that it's easy.

These wires will work; they are designed for '3 way binding posts' which look like red/black circles on the rear of the speakers. The plugs on these wires go into the 'circles'; very easy! If your speakers only accept bare wire, the plugs on the wires easily remove by unscrewing revealing the bare copper strands. Your Onkyo has 3 way binding posts and are compatible with the banana plugs on the wires.

yes, it uses very small 5 way screw binding posts on the rear. I use banana plugs and plug right into the posts

If the Sony uses banana plugs, there is no reason why these shouldn't fit. All banana plugs are universal size and shape. They would not fit 1/8", 1/4", RCA, or other audio plugs. If you don't know what kind of plug adapter your receiver uses, check the manual

those do not accept banana plugs. just bare wire then you tighten down the binding posts

Yes, it accepts banana plugs, and they work better than regular speaker wire. Although fastened properly, the speaker wire sometimes comes loose somehow and drops the connection between the speaker and amp. Banana plugs on the other hand, give me a solid connection

Yes, all of the speaker terminals can be direct wired or use banana plugs. My set-up is using banana plugs with no issues.

Yes, they will accept a banana plug, it plugs into the end. Also, a spade or bare wire can be clamped by unscrewing the top and then screwing it down to clamp them.

install banana plugs to one end of each cable. these will attach to your power amp red to red and black to black. then you only have to plug in the 1/4 inch plugs to the back of your speakers, which by the way, are awesome.

Banana plugs. Will save loads of frustration when connecting the wiring to the receiver.

The speaker connectors are banana plugs, but you can use bare wire with them as well.

You will need to use a digital coaxial audio cable (RCA type plug.) There are no banana jack connectors on the unit for the sub woofers.

How to install:1. Unscrew the back cap.2. Make sure the front plug is fully screwed in and tight.3. Strip the plastic shield on your wire about 1.5 inches.4. Place the striped wire through the holes on the sides: in one side and out the other. Do not place in the hole on the back.5. Screw the cap onto the back of the plug until it's tight. It will provide enough pressure to hold the wire in place.6. Clip any excess wire from the side so that you don't have exposed copper.7. Plug into your speaker or receiver.The back cap is designed to also receive a plug, so this approach allows you to plug another banana plug into it and piggy back a signal if you so choose.

Yes, I bought this with a set of banana plug tips that screw onto the ends of your wires. They work great and I highly recommend them.

You can put the speaker wire in thru the side OR the back of the banana plug. Make certain to buy the largest gauge wire. I bought 18 ga for small Element speakers and the wires don't stay in the clips. Bummer.
