I have a variety of vintage speakers with spring c...lamp type terminals. Soldering the ends of my 14 gauge speaker cable with the Cardas Silver solder worked perfectly. Banana and spade terminations wouldn’t have fit. I’m satisfied that I’ve done the utmost for the sound of my system at a very reasonable cost. Thank you for a great product! As a write this, I am listening to Cello Concertos on my Kenwood LS-770 speakers and loving the sound. Great music is the greatest escape from an increasingly stressful world.

Best solder I have ever used. currently I am restoring a pa...ir of Spica Angelus speaker's and the tweeter voice coil wires came loose at the terminals. I have always used Dayton silver solder, and it is a good quality solder, however it has a much higher temperature melt point. That is fine for some applications, not for soldering small thin, fine components. The Cardas Quad has a low melting temperature so less heat is required. It also cures with a nice shinny surface once you clean the flux off. From an electrical stand point it is very cunductive making for a better "joint". I don't believe I will ever use another solder again for crossover's and restorations of fine high end electronics. I will be buying more!

If you are considerin...g the purchase of this solder, you already understand the superiority of silver over other soldering elements. And if you have used other silver solders, you know ow difficult they are to work with often inadvertently lifting PCB traces or overheating components. Fortunately, this solder is far easier to work with and still provides the benefits of the high-conductivity silver content. I use it in all of my esoteric electronic rebuilds and places where additional strength is required [jewelry, etc.]. This is good stuff.

This solder is really good. Very easy to use. Flo...ats perfect, and makes a perfect surface. Have tested a lot of other (Viablue, Kester, ESC m705, oyaide...). The only one that comes close is WBT, the old type (lead).
