Hello Everyone,
Wasn't quite sure where this one belonged, so I appoligize if I misplaced it.
Anyway, I have a roll of 2333 Console Audio Cable by Mogami. It is a single conductor wire surrounded by sheilding. When I solder a 1/4" TS connector to it I first strip the outter plastic casing of the wire and peel back the sheilding. I twist the sheilding together and later solder that to lower and larger surface of the plug. I then strip about 1/4" of the lead wire and twist it. In this smaller wire, there are the metal leads but also these tiny plastic fibers. When I am tinning the lead, these fibers usually melt. My question is...Is this okay? If not, what should I do with them?
Hope I was clear enough.
Thank you!!
Cheers,
Scott
