I was taught that soldering is far better than crimp.
What's your thoughts?

With the proper tools the crimp seems to be the best. After a while the
atoms in the wire and the connector will fuse together somewhat.

WHAT????
Solder will work for a connection that does not move, but for a
connection that moves crimping is more desireable as the wire will not
break as easily.
Crimping is generally more desirable for most electrical connections.


If you can not use the proper crimping tool then solder.
