I have also been looking for these plugs for my 626. This should do the job.Thanks for the information AK!
 
JAaa Bumping this, somebody copped this from here and is now selling on Ebay.

So moving it up for my friends on AK for free.........

Great work! just ordered a couple of ac plugs then. Another thing if you are really desperate to test the amplifier is to use male spade connectors. worked for me and can actually look fairly decent
 
My first post here on AK. Thank you for all the helpful hints. Cheers!

Those don't work well, they snap when bent. The Cooper brand work the best I have found. Those look like them but are of lesser quality.

I know it's over 10 years, but somebody may benefit. Just discovered these work while messing with a 626.

Banana Plug to 4mm​

Don't like those with the solid posts. The type with braided leads work better. Leads like these:

https://www.amazon.com/KOOKFJLLZ-Fe...dd-a33e-421a50826231&pd_rd_i=B0F51S987Y&psc=1

The link is only to show the braided leads, I know nothing about the connector quality.

Just yesterday I was trying to adjust offset on a Pioneer SX-950 but couldn't because the spring loaded speaker jacks kept spitting out my meter leads.
 
If it were me I'd bury a bad design idea and modify my receiver with this jack plate , they sell them on ebay , they are made to fit the Pioneer as a drop in replacement.

There are plenty of aftermarket plugs that are just not good for the speaker jacks pictured in post #58. Some are made with a twist in one connector but the twist keeps the plug from seating 100%.

Some plugs are way too long. If these are inserted all the way they will separate the contacts inside the receiver causing them to get damaged and split apart. The originals are short.

Some plugs are too damn thick with ends that aren't tapered and end up bending and pushing the receiver connections back inside to where they don't make contact anymore. If one were to look closely at the rear of the receiver they'd see that the contacts are right out near the opening.

Examples below.
