do copper, silver & gold cables sound different ?


silver is supposed to be the best conductor, copper a very good conductor and gold a poor conductor.

there are a number of hybrid cables which combine copper and silver or copper and gold, or all three. some are very expensive.

i've always wanted to hear a pure gold cable, but can't afford it.

what differences would you expect when listening to cables with these metals, and why ?

FYI, the term "alloy" covers the previously mentioned "non-ferrous" metals (includes magnesium and titanium), along with "ferrous" types ranging from carbon-based steel mixes, to stainless catagories.
