[QUOTE="02WS6, post: 8691548, member: 678581"] Option 1: Best - Re-wire so that there are no additional connectors in the speaker wire lines. Option 2: Better - Solder with fine flux core the additional connection and heatshrink the wires together. Option 3: Good - Use a butt/spade/bullet crimped connection. The reason for these options - For every connection an electronic circuit has there can be a small amount of voltage drop in that connection. The best option only has the connection from the headunit to the speaker, minimizing the amount of voltage drop as much as possible. (The HU connection and whatever the drop is over a given length of wire) The minute you start adding any additional connections to that circuit you can introduce additional voltage drops into the circuit degrading the quality of signal the speaker finally receives. Any of the three options works, anyone on this board would recommend Option 1 as the best though. Its just up to you to decide which one you want to go with. [/QUOTE]
