Speaker wiring connections

[metal_miner]

I'm debating between soldering versus crimp connectors.

I have infinity speakers in my door and they have the tabbed male spade wiring connections. I purchased some female spade connectors from Crutchfield. They seem to fit snug, but loose in terms of side-to-side play on the tabs.

Is this anything to worry about in terms of affecting sound quality or should I just go ahead and solder? Will the soldering hurt the speakers?

-Thanks-

Solder, heat shrink, don't worry about the side to side loose as long as it doesn't pull off easy.
