If done properly the solder actually forms an alloy with the wire. The molecules from the solder intermingle with the molecules of the wire. If the wire is tarnished the solder will roll off. Flux is corrosive and eats away whatever tarnish is on the wire. Most solder has the flux built in. If it does it will say so on the label.
which solder do you recommend?
I am about to embark on a journey of building a pair of Audio Note kit 2 speakers and will need to solder some Audio Note Lexus copper stranded wire from the crossover to the drivers.
I do not care about price.
What is the best sounding solder in this situation?
Any soldering tips would be appreciated as I am a rookie.
I plan on buying a heat sink and Weller soldering iron.
thanks everyone...
Phil
