I have to use spades unless I form a spade or a "U" from the bare wire. My binding posts are Cardas posts, no holes to place the wire through to clamp down on. Especially with the stiffness and thickness of the wire the only way I can figure out how to accomplish a air tight connection to a binding post would be with a spade. I will be using a 140 watt solder gun (next closest thing to a blow torch..lol) to solder the spade.

I dissagree regarding using bare wire for several reasons, for which I do not have time at the moment to get into. Techflex "may" affect the sonics of the cable, then it may not. Need to run off to work, will discuss this thread later...
