Copper vs. Silver interconnects

I think Purist Audio Museus IC's are amazing and amazingly inexpensive for what you get, which is neither copper or silver but an alloy. It's not just what the wire is made of but how it is made and how the jackets are made as well. I will soon be trying the Venustas IC's from PAD as well at a much higher price, but I hear they are amazing.

Just to update this post, I tried an AU24 in my systems. It was an excellent cable. In fact, for the first hour or two, I was sure that I would keep it. By the fourth hour, however, the music no longer engaged me. I was getting bored, in other words.

With the Au24, I could hear some mid-bass frequencies that I was not hearing with the Verastarr cables. The AU24 sounded slightly fuller and warmer. However, with the AU24, the musicians sounded like they had moved from 5 feet away to the other side of a large room. And the AU24's did not have the clarity or attack that the Verastarr cables do, at least not in the two systems that we are using. My wife and I both liked them initially--by a very slight margin--but as I said above, we were bored after several hours of listening.

I'll see if I can find some of the PAD Musaeus cables, and maybe the Empress Cables by Michael Wolff, as they are getting some good reviews as well. I think we are ultimately partial to the clarity of the silver sound.

Thank you all again for your input.
All the best,
Howard (& my wife Gina, whose sharp ears pick out all of the nuances so well)

You should really try the NBS classic lines like King Serpent, Signature and Master.

Thank you for the suggestion, S23chang. I'll look into those as well.

Boa try the TGaudio they are exciting cable. I also
experience the same thing with the Au24, although
they are excellent, what can I say.The TG cables
they let you hear so much, that they are not bright at
all.See, no one want to sell them?
