    Some sort of crimp on may give the cleanest appearance. I like soldered connections. A minimalist approach uses a quality wire stripper to push aside insulation, exposing the conductor for soldering, without cutting the wire. Can fold all the wires back at the joint, if there is enough slack, and slide on a piece of heatshrink, or wrap it up with rubberized tape, or whatever. Not usually too concerned about appearances.
