By the way, unlike a lot of oxides, copper oxide is just as conductive as copper. :)
Of course, I still use crimp bands and nice speaker connectors anyway.

@erik_squires - Copper Oxide(Cu2O) is a semiconductor(Energy Band Gap of 2.147): http://www.skb.se/publikation/2303589/TR-11-08.pdf and has a dielectric constant of 18.1, which makes it even worse for audio signal connections: http://www.azom.com/article.aspx?ArticleID=8423 and http://www.azom.com/article.aspx?ArticleID=8423 Perhaps you’re thinking about oxides of silver? |
