The Speakon (stylized speakON) is a trademarked name for an electrical connector,[2] originally manufactured by Neutrik, mostly used in professional audio systems for connecting loudspeakers to amplifiers. Other manufacturers make compatible products,[3] often under the name "speaker twist connector".

Speakon connectors are rated for at least 30 A RMS continuous current,[4] higher than 1/4-inch TS phone connectors, two-pole twist lock, and XLR connectors for loudspeakers.[5]
