Silver/copper alloy cables


We all know cable manufacturers make either copper wire cables, silver wire cables, and or cables utilizing both respective strands. Anybody know of any cable manufacturers that make cable from silver/copper alloy wire? If not, any insight as to why?

I thought SRs tungsten construct was a silver/tungsten mix. They just don’t use a length of tungsten SC wire. There is a lot of thinking in SRs constructs, It’s not Brylcreem, "a little dab will do ya".. LOL
Yup I read that...in the actual wire recipe, for the tungsten/silver mix. Not cheap stuff. It’s a lot more malleable too.. SR has some really good stuff always going on.

I just read a cable 3 meters SILVER CLAD 12/24 conductor #20 (spaced) ribbon cable. with spades. and wood weight blocks
34,000.00 PLUS... for a pair... 2500.00 for parts and labor, that’s a push....

That cable is just Copper clad, plane and simple, oh it might have a twist or a good cryo (LOL)... A great looks, but in reality 30,000.00 worth of pure GREAD. They have a 17,000.00 version too.. 6/12 or something..

I use nickel / silver. I have some short boxes that have all kind of mixtures in short lengths on turret boards. I've tried a lot of mixes,some are really different.. lead/tin, alu/mag, molyB/alu, brass wire. I've also wrapped short runs of different combo stranded and SC wires with VERY fine silver, and copper SC wire. one wrap per inch or so. THAT made some really interesting cables... The mixing box can hold 15 different constructs, a network and custom wound adjustable induction coils..
