Solid Silver Power Cord

I have a Wireworld Platinum Electra 7 power cord for my DAC and I love it! Maybe because it’s solid silver.

I am expecting the new Innuos ZEN MK3 to arrive soon, and need a good power cord for it. I am thinking solid silver, but the Platinum Electra is so expensive. Any good, cheaper solid silver alternatives? If not solid silver, what else would work great for digital (I will be using Innuos ZEN MK3 as a Roon Server and Endpoint)

Silver doesn't make it better.

@stringreen   Silver doesn't necessarily make it better.  As with all gear, it depends on how the raw materials are used.  "the recipe matters".

There must be some confusion. Silver measures better. Significantly better. Therefore it is better. 3 nines silver is measurably better than 6 nines copper. Gold infused silver doesn’t measure better than non gold infused silver.

Hey @david_ten Triode Wire Labs are NOT solid silver conductors. Just the connectors. I checked with Pete.

Having said that, I should probably just get his American Digital and call it a day
