I use solid core silver available from Parts Connexion.
They sound perfect, but physically brittle. I've had a couple of them break at the connection end in my XLR AND RCA cables.
If I could afford stranded silver I would go that route.
I have used silver plated, stranded copper speaker wires and found they took a long time to break in, and when they did they were no better than stranded copper.
Best,
E
