It is really very simple.
Silver cables are very clean, bright, detailed and tend to be on the analytic side of the spectrum. I find that very useful in certain parts of my system. Copper presents to present a richer lush full and importantly a warmer sound. That to is very nice in certain circumstances. I have also had a number of alloy wires, but can't or don't want to attempt describing the resultant tone.
I never had gold but except for some plated jacks etc. I would like to try it someday but the cost of some of these less expensive metals is prohibitive on occasion.
I do favor the Ohno single crystal cast copper which sound quicker and more neutral to me.
I wonder what a decent gauge wire of equal parts pre silver, copper and gold would sound like/ I will have to hit the lottery for that one.
