A type (and brand) of multi-pin connector developed by Neutrik which is now commonly found on speakers and amplifiers intended to be used in high power mobile applications. They have become popular because they offer a very high quality reliable connection, can handle extremely high power, are very durable, and are relatively low cost compared to other similar connectors. Standard Speakon connectors come in four or eight conductor versions (though other configurations are available). The Speakon 8 has the same footprint as the EP8 connector and the Speakon 4 has the same footprint as XLR "D" type connectors.
