Can Silver Interconnects be bright in your gear

Silver ICs can definitely sound unwarm/whitish/unanalogue/digital, but well designed Silver ICs, whether RCA/XLR, can sound warm/analogue/vinyl with more resolution/detail than Copper ICs :)

Well designed Silver/Copper ICs can also can sound warm/analogue/vinyl with more resolution/detail than Copper ICs and perhaps as much and even more than Silver ICs :)

Well designed Silver plated Copper ICs can also can sound warm/analogue/vinyl with more resolution/detail than Copper ICs and perhaps as much and even more than Silver ICs :)

No,silver interconnect can not add brightness in your gear. Most silver cables on the other hand have had greater bass, mid and treble extension.
I replaced with all solid core silver cables to my system, the extension and image was amazing.

Exactly. I get the impression that quite a few audiophiles don't like full frequency extension. Silver is really the way to go if you crave detail and dynamics.

I agree, when you want to go for the best results in audio,
silver is an essential part.

Even the best copper cables cannot give you this quality. I
like things to proof. You need battles to convince people. In
the last few years I did win many audio battles with silver
cables against copper.

People choose for better bass, opener mid en more details. But
that are not the only benefits. Instruments are so much
sharper focussed. There is also more air and decay.

The only benefit I could find about copper is that the mid
freq. is warmer and never harsness in the high freq. What I
have noticed in all the years that I work in this business is
that many people only focus on one or only a few parts you
judge a system for/ At one time.

For a few months I use 2 sets of the latest Audioquest Wel
Signature XLR cables. They brought me to a new level of
listening to music. I have done thousends of tests with cables
in almost 17 years of time. But I never autioned cables which
could separate instruments ans voices this good. I never could
listen to 2nd and 3th voices of a recording this easy. I never
auditioned an interconnect what could let me hear all the
differences in height of recordings this easy and clear.

I understand that people choose for copper instead of silver.
It says a lot about the tools they use in their system. When
you use speakers with older tweeters or tweeters which do not
go further than 20.000 hz silver can cause earlier problems in
the mid and high freq. When you use speakers which can go to
40.000 hz or even above 100.000 the difficulties in the mid
and high freq are a lot less.

For me as a perfectionist you always aim to the best. This
part never stops. I am addicted to test and compare. Because
you love to get a higher endresult all the time.

In my world silver is an essential part for the absolute
sound. I can demo that I can outperform many highend sets on
all parts you judge a system for. Without silver I never could
reach this level I have at this moment. For me it is that
simple and clear.

Beside this I understand that silver does not always works in
every system. Those people need to audition more different
parts to find out why it does not work in their system. At the
end with silver you come closer to the absolute sound!

Well said, Bo. My next speaker cable purchase will be silver. I can't wait! :D

I'm not sure why guys do this, but whatever.
