and so ya know, i have never had a butt splice come off on me and i take my truck through the most "vibrations" from the suspension that you could possible think about. so once again IMO heat shrink is a little unnecissary. sure it makes a stronger connection and looks better but I just feel that its not worth it. and like i said before "to each his own"

now just so we are clear, Low e red, I do respect your knowledge that you have and your experience. you are much more knowlegeable then me and most of the people on here when it comes to sound systems. I am not trying to prove you wrong with anything, I am just stating my opinion. Last i checked i was allowed to do that.

Look, sorry for sounding like I was coming down on you. I wasnt, but thats a huge problem with boards. Next time, lets leave out all the high and mighty crap. That wasnt necessary although I do see why you said that.
