Can Silver Interconnects be bright in your gear


Hi,

I am considering getting a pair of silver interconnects
by Crystal Clear Audio Master Class series.My system tends to lean on the bright side due to my room acoustics.i was just wondering if a pair of silver interconnects can add to this problem?And does anybody have experience with Crystal Clear Interconnects?

I agree with Schubert, good quality silver just reflects the inherent character of your system/components. All silver cables aren't the same, in fact there's a broad range amongst them IMO.My current silver cables are open,resolving and transparent. They happen to be the most natural sounding cables I've had so far. Beautiful warmth,tone, harmonic color and instrumental fullness/body.No edge,brightness or harshness. So it just depends on which cable and in what particular system.
Millmetr,
I've used the Ocellia IC and SC the past 3 years and will keep them for many more years.They are utterly organic and wonderful.
Hello Al,
I agree that the often touted "lower resistance" of silver in reality/practical terms is negligible. I do however find that for what ever reason high quality silver just sounds better than equal quality copper. This is based purely on personal listening experiences and isn't scientific by any means. I can't explain it but I certainly hear it. Silver consistently sounds more natural and has less coloration, in other words more pure sounding.
Hi John,
I don't disagree with one word you have written. When I post my thoughts and opinions I try to make it clear that they are"personal" observations(John I stated personal experience rather than IMHO in my post above, same meaning). There's no intention to make my impressions all encompassing and universal for all, no way. I'll never hear more than a small(tiny) fraction of the many cables available. Even if somehow I did hear them all it wouldn't matter. It you change 1 or 2 aspects of your system, the pecking order of the favorite cables will ineviably change. There are simply too many variables involved to declare any cable (component, speaker, anything) the "best" choice for everyone in all situations.

I enjoy participating in what I find to be interesting forum threads and sharing my 2 cents worth of personal listening experiences. It doesn't extend beyond that level of magnitude for me. All I simply meant to express here is that silver cables have been a major success in my audio system as currently configured. Silver+DHT tubed components+ efficient speakers= pure musical joy and realism, I'm very happy. John, by the way I always enjoy reading your comments on this site.
Best Regards,
Charles.
John,
Thanks for your kind comments. I wish you and your family a very happy holiday season as well.
