Put simply, this is the best termination method to use with QE
Put simply, this is the best termination method to use with QED loudspeaker cables. The science and engineering of loudspeaker cable doesn't stop with the cable...
New strengthened plug
The new Forté plug pin section is designed to maximise contact area throughout the wide tolerance range encountered in 4 mm amplifier and speaker sockets. Here, some are quite tight whereas others are loose, so the spring loaded Forté blade is designed to fit into smaller and larger sockets with equal insertion force.

WHAT IS AIRLOC™?
Airloc™ is a form of cold weld system that can be used to permanently attach QED Forté™ banana plugs or spade terminals to our entire range of speaker cables.
One of the main reasons for choosing a QED speaker cable is the superior d.c. resistance characteristics offered by our exclusive use of 99.999% oxygen free copper conductors. It seems a shame then to ruin all this attention to detail by neglecting the most vulnerable area of the speaker cable chain - that of the physical interface between cable and amplifier or speaker terminals.
Seen under a microscope the surface of a typical copper strand is very rough and so using normal screw type terminals - as found on binding posts or cheap banana plugs - electrical contact is only made in a relatively small number of places. Add to this a layer of oxidation - which is inevitable if copper is exposed to the air for even a short time - and the combined resistance of the cable and its termination can creep back up to levels present in a more inferior cable.
By using a cold weld crimp type termination Airloc™ plugs squash the conductors and plug together to improve contact area and reduce resistance.
