Pure Silver Wire
If silver is so good to use why do we not see solid silver speaker cables? Price is not that high- 10ga diameter pure silver 6ft is just under $300. That makes a pair of speaker cables about $1,100 for material. I see the price of some of these cables on the market and $1,100 is a fraction of their asking price.
@jaygilb So, what Bose system do you listen to? You’d be much better off at ASR as that’s where people go when they can’t hear. |
It’s a good question. You’re showing 4N silver cable I think, but better silver goes up significantly in cost that'd obviously drive the cost of those cables up a lot. I have this theory that manufacturers largely use copper cables/interconnects to voice their products so when consumers use silver cables the increased level of information can become too much and as a result sound a bit bright. I personally use silver interconnects but Acoustic Zen Satori shotgun bi-wire cables that are copper. I reviewed Voodoo Ultralinear silver speaker cables in my system 20 years ago and found them to be excellent if a little less robust sounding than my AZ cables, but for someone looking for more detail/air their cables would be a great place to look. |
