Which SpeakON connector would provide the better connector to wire method? I'm looking at the NLT4FXX-BAG, which is a full metal housing and uses solder cup connection and allows up to 10-awg wire or the NL2(or 4)FX, which uses the screw clamps. I know the screw clamp models are easier to assemble and provide some mechanical connections, but it's probably not as good as a proper crimp connection and doesn't do much to seal the conductor. Soldering can provide a secure connection, but lacking the mechanical connection may raise the resistance level a little. Plus, heating such large gauge wire quickly can be difficult. Thoughts on what would be the better method? Cable will likely be Canera 4s11.
