audition copper/silver arm wire in New York

Dear,
On the subject of the internal tonearm wire being copper versus silver.
I read tons of excellent reviews / feedback on the subject where folks often use word 'dark' when applied to sound produced by copper tonearm wire, for example, augiogon members Eweedhome, Frogman and many others. Those reviews help to stay more informed, just very interesting to read, big thanks for that. I would much appreciate to be able to listen to silver all the way from cart to the juke box, or may be just the silver arm wire. Does anybody know a dealer any other place in New York city where this can happen? Thank you
Anatoliy

Frogman, yes with personal emails now sort of not working (at least for me) it is not that easy to get in touch with someone. But whenever you have time it is 9143099091 my cell, would appreciate.
For now I decided to go with copper in my old Sumiko MDC800, I am also getting RS-212D that also has copper wire in it be default. This was part of a reason I decided to stick with copper for now, my thinking was the cost between copper and silver would not be that substantial relative to the overall cost of the arm in those costing 2 K and more. So if Ortofon/Origin Live so chooses to put copper in its flagman - they should have a reason. Hopefully copper doesn't make Rachmaninoff sound like Shostakovich (just kidding)
