When soldering, you have a metal substance BONDING every strand of wire together. With crimping you are just smooshing them together and hoping half of the strands get contact.Now, you tell me which sounds better.With a crimp for large wire.. I usually invest in some largish copper ones. First thing you do is tin the end of the wire the crimp is going on (cover it in solder). Second is to put some solder in the cup of the crimp. Third is to heat both up with a torch and stick them together whilst adding solder. Crimp after that if you can.</blockquote>
