Let’s talk speaker wire and terminating, eh?
Any particular gauge any of you run, or is it just whatever is lying around…Furthermore, when you’re terminating your wires, do you solder the ends before attaching banana plugs and whatnot?
Thoughts on CCA vs. solid copper?
As for me, the “bench tech” in me has always soldered the ends with some added heat shrink.
Most of what I have is 12-16awg copper. I mostly use the banana plugs that screw on, no solder, just a mechanical connection.
I don’t fiddle with my gear as much as I used to. I started on banana plugs when I was swapping things weekly.
