TaylorFade Posted May 25, 2013 Report Posted May 25, 2013 (edited) A combination of crimp and solder works best. Sooo... you want your copper or aluminum shielded with... a shitty conductor? Silver solder (contrary to it's name) has 16% of the conductivity of copper. No thanks. Ill crimp. Edited May 25, 2013 by TaylorFade 1 Quote
