These are low current powere wires for a dvd player, screen, and line driver.  Should I solder them or does it matter?  thanks

I solder everything and heat shrink whereever I can!

I know this goes against what most do with the crimp caps, but I like the security of the connection that only soldering can give.

It takes alot longer and can be a huge pain in the butt, but I guess I am just funny like that!

When I put a system together that I know will hit hard, I even use a little blue Locktight on the screw connections.

My wife says I overdue everything, but I haven't had anybody complain that I go the extra little bit for them!
