Message	Here's the link: [ http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103494 ] I've used this wire connection method a number of times - works just fine. Helps to apply some soldering flux to the connector before trying to flow in the solder... It's also pretty easy to take the insulated butt connectors, use a head gun to soften the plastic and pull it off. I've done it that way when out of the others...
