Unplated copper spades/banana


Good Morning.

I am doing some research on spades and banana plugs for speaker cable.  A friend of mine suggested I go with pure unplated copper instead of gold plated copper.  Does pure copper offer any sonic benefits over the plated versions?

Thanks

No. Gold advantage won't  tarnish like bare copper. The question is...which connection is better, a tight spade or a less tight fitting banana plug?
