When I decided to install a second set I went to Amazon and bought this unit and I can honestly say that this is one quality item! Contrary to the negative review that says this doesn't fit into a standard electrical box - IT DOES! For my installation I picked up a standard plastic electrical box and attached it - then slid wires in through the back of that and connected the wires to the binding posts.
The unit comes in two pieces - the inner piece that contains the binding posts and an outer plate. Once you make the connection on the back side of the binding posts you secure that piece to the electrical box. Then you fit the cover over that and attach the cover using the smaller color-matched screws.
This unit gives you options both inside and out for different wire connections - you can use spades, direct wire or banana plugs. Inside the box I just used the direct wire to binding post connection and tightened. I briefly considered using spades but I was lazy! Anyway, everything went together quickly, smoothly, and with no issues at all. It looks very professional and very clean - every bit as good as my first installation - but at 1/3 the price.
I highly recommend this unit and this vendor. In fact I have bookmarked Monoprice for futire purchases.
The wall plate arrived with two red binding posts on the long edge, and the two black on the opposite long edge. My preference is to have the two red binding posts on top (short edge), and the two black on the bottom. This makes it much easier to simply look at the plate to determine left or right polarity. It was easy enough to readjust the binding posts from the backside using a 13mm (1/2") wrench.
I also turned the binding posts so that the wire opening is at a downward 45-degree angle. By default, the wires would come straight out the sides at a 90-degree angle. Changing the openings to a downward angle places less pressure on the wire connections, looks better, and it makes wire management inside the electrical box easier.
Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase.
