Let's talk about Silver...


We got off on a short tangent in another discussion about the merits of silver in cables, but we did not want to derail that conversation. So I thought I would start a general discussion where folks can share their experiences, and opinions of course, with silver cables. This can include solid silver, silver plated or alloys, wire, connectors, analog, digital etc.

The knee jerk reaction in the audio world is to say that silver is bright, and in some cases that may be true, but I think it is not a universal truth. I am currently trialing some solid silver interconnects, and I have had some good success with silver in the digital realm. Please share your experience, and opinions of course.

I have some bespoke silver connectors that I bought from a retired engineer who builds them at home. Helped with dull sounding gear- Lexicon,Arcam CD players etc. Worth a try, before you replace the unit.....

I also had Silver fuse  jumpers in a pair of Magnepan's. Sounded great till I melted a tweeter........
