Rafafel ... just some points for clarity ... Brass (Copper + Zinc) Bronze (Copper + Tin) and Beryllium (Copper +Beryllium) are the different base metals the conductors are made of
Rhodium .. Gold .. Platinum and Palladium are platings that are applied to the base metal
The base conductor material ... good .. better .. best .. Brass .. Phosphorous Bronze and Beryllium is important to conductivity
The plating's how ever are not .. good .. better .. best .. but more flavoring or seasoning to taste or need
Tubes may appreciate Rhodium .. SS and Digital may blend well with Gold and a system slightly down on detail may perk up with Platinum and Palladium
Pick your base metal for the best conductivity ... audiophile grade starts at Phosphorous Bronze .. then you can select a plating based on your systems need for seasoning ... does it need more salt or garlic
Just remember ... What effects the Cow Effect the Cheese (;-]
