Eclipse 3+ is 162 litz coated copper strands w/ the older stile connector that looks like a knuckle.
Eclipse 5 is 162 litz coated occ copper strands w/ the newer stile connector w/ the hollow silver clad center conductor (the new connector makes a HUGE difference)
Gold Eclipse 3+ is 162 litz coated silver strands w/ the older connector
Gold Eclipse 5 is 162 litz coated occ silver strands w/ the newer connector
On a side note (because I know someone will ask) OCC stands for Ohno Continuous Casting which is basically the highest grade of copper or silver you can get right now for the home audio market.
