I have also used silver in places, replaced the tweeter wire in my S100s with Home Grown Audio silver wire and it made a nice improvement. I am using a custom silver tonearm cable from a small maker in England and it is very good. I have some Siltech ICs of the 4-28 and 4-56 vintage but they are .5M length so have limited application. The newer pure silver Siltech is a little out of my budget range.
Silver wiring for interconnects
I recently changed internal wiring on my Merlin VSM-Mx speakers to Neotech Silver OCC5N solid core. I find sound beeing nice/smooth but still detailed even more so than original without a hint of edge/sharpness. Sound gets more fleshier/full as time goes with better soundstage. I was very sceptical before changing and it wasn´t until reading very positive reviews, especially on Neotechs, I dared.
I use Siltech and Zen silver cables in my system, hence change for better synergy.
I now consider making own IC:s from Neotech but would like to hear other opinion/ideas about: wiring thickness, isolating/damping material and design concept.
For speakers, internal wiring was isolated/damped with pure cotton, no teflon. Used 3x20awg on mid/woofer and 2x20awg on tweeter.
Many Thanks!
