I was wondering about a similar thing myself, I hope you don't mind me addi=
ng my concerns to this thread. I'm at the stage of connecting up 4 EM172 ca=
psules, and I'm concerned that I might end up breaking the wires off the ca=
psules if they get pulled too hard. I don't want to risk having to resolder=
ing them.
I've resorted to doing all the connections using terminal blocks intended f=
or 240V wiring, i.e. insert the wire and do up the screw. Then I can safely=
attach other wires to the other end of the terminal block without risk of =
pulling. I've tested one capsule and it seems to work.
Unconventional? What's the proper way to wire these things up?

Connectors won't affect the sound.
