Newe,

A "Cold Solder Joint" is cloudy looking and dull. May even have a rough surface texture. A well executed solder joint is shiny and smooth. Pictures would be helpful I know, but is that at all helpful ?

Also, two wires connected via a cold solder joint can be yanked apart fairly easily. With a good solder joint, the wire will break before the joint does.

Some of my connections look cloudy, but are very strong. Thsi usually happens to me with deans. I'm almost thinking the type of solder used here as well. My solder is not always "shiny", but my system runs really well right now....
Suppose it would help using the damn edit button!
