Rhodium vs Gold AC connectors


Hi dear fellows.Does anybody tried these type of connectors in power cords?In my case I don`t know which could be the differences in sound performances between them.I heard that rhodium connectors have more extended hights frequences , more airy and fluid than gold connectors, but also that they can produce a non-lively sound, with too much control.Regarding Gold connectors I red that they produce a warmer sound, specially in the mids, but with not so much detail as rhodium.Is it true?I will appreciate your comments to make a proper decision.Thanks in advance!Raf

unplated cooper will need frequent corrosion cleaning
Rja, what is the measure units of Sound Temperature?
I'm not sure Czarivey. For sure the whole subject is extremely subjective (no pun intended). As mentioned, I don't perceive much difference between rhodium and gold.
The differences I described I attributed to the opinions of others (practicing to become a politician?).
Czarivey,

You stated "Niether [sic] Rhodium or Gold-plated termination will have substantial differences in performance after all ..."

My experience is that there are substantial differences in my system between gold and rhodium. My system prefers rhodium.
Had them all from Oyaide and my experience is the same from Czarivey...my choice is Silver.
Sabai,
Your statement doesn't surprise me as I'm sure this whole thing is very system dependent. In my system I hear very little difference but if I had it all to do over again I'd probably go the rhodium route because of the increased durability. As I mentioned I have had gold wear off AC prongs exposing the underlying copper and who knows what goes on inside the outlets?.

When it comes to audio I try to abstain from making all encompassing statements such as "there is no difference" as my opinions are based only on my own experience. Too many variables exist to make such statements.

While asking for opinions is a good place to start, experimentation is definitely the key to finding what's best for a given system and listener.
