Banana Plug question

Really basic question, but I have never used anything buy bare wire before.

Are there different sizes of banana plugs? The inner diameter of the binding post on my Adcom 545 seem to be much larger than the ones on my Polk monitor 7C's.

Thanks,
Todd
Setup:
Adcom GFA-545 amp
Nad 1600 pre
Dual 704 TT
Pioneer 707 R2R
Pioneer DV-578A Multi-format
Polk SDA-2 Mains

    My bananas are the ones from partsexpress really cheap ones. from browsing at the store some might be a little bigger and flex less so that it's a snug fit and more contact...other than that there wasn't a specific size listed on the banana plugs that i saw. You can always talk to adcom or something and see if they know..

    Hope this helps,

    You can get expanding ones- they start small, you turn a screw & they expand. Cobalt has them.
