This feature makes it a priority to be used in high-power output equipment to connect speakers and receivers/amplifiers. Sometimes you can see banana plugs divided into two groups, called "dual banana plugs", but not all equipment (especially speakers) can be used.
Lotus plug: commonly known as the RCA plug, this is similar to the color difference terminal. It is more common behind ordinary computer multimedia speakers. It is used to connect the sound source connection of the computer and the subwoofer or the main console device. It is divided into two red and white ones for distinction. Left and right channels.
