Copper for Solid State / Silver for Tubes ?

Twl,check the website: www.interlinkhouse.com.They have a gold interconnect called PGS that is developing quite a following.I have tried a few good silver interconnects on my solid state system with poor results.They're extremely transparent with incredibly detailed highs but the end result is listener's fatigue.The harmonics and tonality to me just don't compete with a good copper cord.But then again a good silver cord may be the ticket for you.I have a Stealth CWS pure silver single RCA I'll sell you cheap.

This is an interesting post. I have both SS and tube systems (tube is in development). I own the original Pure Note Epsilon pure silver cables and their newer Reference (hybrid copper-silver), www.purenote.com. On my SS system the hybrid version is clearly superior, no HF tilt and true midrange. Yet on my tube setup the pure silver version is much more detailed. My findings are that the tube system is masking the highs making the silver version sound less bright. I am convinced that alloyed wires are a good balance in cable design.

Shak73, as Garfish said, in general I agree with you. I own mostly SS equipment over the years and I have tried several silver cables, without much success. They seemed to bright, or etched for my taste. Copper seems warmer. I've heard silver cables sounding wonderful in friends tube based systems though. I'm sure there are exceptions, but IMHO overall, yes, copper for SS and silver for tubes is the way to go.
