Broke_Audio_Addict Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 Are those wires soldered or what? Those aren't crimp terminals and then I see strands exposed from the ring terminals so you got me kind of worried man. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.
PURE~PRESSURE Posted January 6, 2015 Author Report Posted January 6, 2015 No there not soldered? I honestly didn't know there was a difference in teminals and there not finished they will be covered.
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 So how did you secure the terminals to the wires? That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.
PURE~PRESSURE Posted January 6, 2015 Author Report Posted January 6, 2015 I think I misunderstood you ...but I crimped them with these Not the best idea but it works.
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 It absolutely does not work 1. Those are not crimp terminals 2. Even if they were vice grips dont exert enough force to crimp the wire properly. you need to take them off and redo them. Also Ghetto crimps, snowdrifter should be here soon.

PURE~PRESSURE Posted January 6, 2015 Author Report Posted January 6, 2015 Which terminals was I suppose to use? If you could add a link to them. Also what are the negatives of continuing on with the terminals crimped like this ?
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 Unless you're going to buy real crimpers just use the terminals you have and solder them properly.

PURE~PRESSURE Posted January 6, 2015 Author Report Posted January 6, 2015 Ite.....this is why I post pics of everything I do. It always helps to get a second thought on everything....preciate it.
jcarter1885 Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 Ive never had a problem or voltage issues from crimping those type of ring terminals so to each their own. Now could soldering be the best method, sure and thats with any terminal.

They are not crimp terminals the only thing you are doing is squeezing it around the wire, a proper crimp tool and terminals will form a cold weld. I'd like to see you do that with those terminals and some vice grips or pliers.
