I keep getting this message when I try to post to the Audio Forum for some reason.

Are you actually logged in when you tried it? I've somehow logged myself out at times and hit that message also. If yes, log out and log back into HDForums.

Hope this helps..

Crimp tools sold by home centers are inexpensive. In addition to crimping, you might also solder the wires for a good connection. I do this on my boat because of vibration.
