I've been an expert at soldering and other blue collar skills for some time. I have in fact soldered using this exact wire. If you're using a low-power soldering iron or gun you're going to get a weak and "cold" connection. Sony recommends that higher power devices are used to get a proper connection. I use one of these: http://www.mylincolnelectric.com/Catalog/equipmentdatasheet.aspx?p=24173 If you're lucky, you're installing a device that matches the depth of the rack, which has a matching angle stock on the rear. More typically, you'll have to kludge something together with angle stock. In any case, powerful heating of the connection is required. Bob Morein (310) 237-6511
