Pure solid silver wire
Is this a home brew power strip you’re making? If so just stick with copper and buy better receptacles as I suspect that will make a bigger difference and not burn your house down. I’d suggest send a email off to Chris at VH Audio for starters... ...

Congrats on your ModWright... you did well. If you’re using the stock power cord you might want to invest in an upgrade later as it will improve things. I’m not sure if Dan voices his gear with WyWires but he does use their cables often and he tur... 
Sales or clearances happening now
@innaAgree. Have Platinum too and slowly moving over from the Silver, but the Silver Series is still a very good place to start and competes well with others at the same price point. 
20 Amp cables for PS Audio P20
VH Audio and WyWires. WyWires right now is having a sale - 40% off. I use a WyWires Silver Juice II HC on my P5 and it did make a difference over the same but non HC (high current) versions I also have. Highly recommended VH Audio as well. 
DAC 1-2K
Looking at DAC’s in the same price point and now reading up on another to add to the list. Been out for sometime but doesn’t get as much press as others. Anyone have experience with the RME ADI-2 DAC? I like what I’m reading and it’s made in Germa... 
Sales or clearances happening now
WyWires extended their anniversary sale. 40% across the board. Probably purchase something. 
Any audible difference between cheap and expensive BNC cables?
Congrats on your Nordost Silver Shadow. I use the same cable and agree it’s a great cable. I will also recommend trying a Nordost power cable as well on your Naim streamer as it will take it to another level. On my digital components I use Nordost... 
Looking into speaker upgrade/change?
I love my Aerial’s but if you don’t have a big amp don’t bother as they will not come alive. My 7B’s have plenty of bottom end but it took me sometime to dial them into my room with the right cables, dedicated circuits, room treatment and etc. I k... 
Sandbox Design Advice
MDF might work but it’s not the most durable material. You’ll for sure have to depend only on the glue as it doesn’t have much strength without a lot of bracing. Another good choice would be poplar as it paints very nicely, much more strength than... 
AV Rack Identification
Not IKEA or Core Audio. With the slotted back panel it reminds me of BDI which I have one but I don’t see they make an open post design like that. The stand on the link would be easy to make if you’re handy of have a local shop build for you. I ju... 
Perfect speakers for audio Research Classic 30
First, very sorry on what is happening in Italy and prayers for you and your Country. Stay safe.Are Klipsch Heresy or above models such as Forte easily available for you? They are an easy load. I have never listened to Triangle speakers but recall... 
DIY power cable questions
Making a homemade cable or buying bulk Furutech I don’t think is the same thing. Agree making a truly homemade cable will probably be a waste of time. Buy bulk cable and terminate your own and maybe save a little money. Check out VH Audio as Chris...
