I’m described as a “detail-freak”. My system is sounded to be quick on transients. Vinyl is are my principal medium.
For the minority of open reel to reel users, I switched from pure copper to custom- made pure silver interconnects into the tube preamplifier. Startling improvement in detail and realism from a Studer semipro machine. No downside other than the increased costs of silver. I was sufficiently impressed that I changes all my interconnects to Darwin silvers. They’ve different grades of silver and treatment. The audible difference convinced me that unsurprisingly all “silver” isn’t audibly the same.
