Cardas RCA Silver connectors


The most beautiful and jewel-like RCA connectors have to be the Cardas. Unfortunately they are also a giant PITA to solder to. The issue is on the shield side. There's a little bar, but if you solder to it, you end up having a very difficult time re-attaching the case. The wire I bend around the tab always gets in the way.

Does any solder master have a trick they'd like to share?

Thanks!

Plus, I find Furutech expensive without quality add. Very pretty though. 

Best,

I do like their hex screw rhodium spades. I wasn't convinced they enhanced or hindered sound. They look pretty too. Dressing up the rear side of my 3As was my main objective. Bare non plated copper is fine otherwise.
