lock or solder the speaker wire in the banana


I got myself the WBT0644 banana plugs for my speaker cables, these can be used either with locking the wire or soldering. Though the screw itself seems s little too short for the wire I was gonna use. But apart from that - would you prefer to solder the wire or just 'lock it'?
Thank you

Awhile back I removed the crimp on spades from my silver Pure Note Cerulean speaker cables and soldered on some bananas. The resulting sound was surprisingly awfull. I cut off the soldered and installed with crimp tool new bananas to good effect. No more solder for me. Thanx Elizabeth for the reminder on crimpsleeves, I'll get some. Mike
