Seems a little silly to be commenting on the quality of wire nuts but you do want to be sure the ones you get have a wire coil inside. Some inexpensive ones are just a plastic cap without any wire inside the wire nut itself. The ones with the metal coil grip much better.
Best way of connecting bare wire to bare wire
Sorry if this sounds like a newbie question - I've always had speakers and speaker wires with banana type ends. Now I am trying the whole 'magnet wire' thing (solid core copper 14 awg) and also changing to Magnepan MC1's and MMG-W's. These speakers have multi-strand bare wires coming out of them, and my copper 'speaker wire' is bare as well. My question is, what is the best way to make a high quality connection between a multi strand bare wire and a solid core bare wire? Solder? Crimp connectors? Just wondering what people out there are using in this situation. Thanks!
